I have the book decendants of the Revis and Reavis Family in America it was complied and written by Barbara Lucas. in 2002 The people you mention are listed in her book as part of the Reavis family. Barbara Lucas is a researcher for the Reavis family and is very adamant that no Reeves are Reavis. She says the Reavis family pronounces their name as in crevice not with the long e. There is a Reavis mailing list on Roots web with tons of information on their research and they have a web site. What I would do is post on Reavis message boards what you have sent me and see what response you will get.Also get in touch with Barbara Lucas and see what she says. As for the documents I have looked at in Surry I didnt find any Reeves spellings they were mostly Reavis Revis Reaves. These were court records and land records.If you look at books most authors lump these names together and I have found by looking at the original you find the correct spelling at that time. Everything in my research points to the fact my Reeves are mixed up with the Reavis family and it it very difficult to prove when someone has taken their land records and say they belong to their family.
