The 1900 census: daughter's name that was not legible is "Dena Rovena Reeves" who later marred Sid Owens and died in Memphis. I talked to her great grandson in Livermore California this evening. They are assembling bible records and a wealth of other information from the Henderson and Decatur County TN REEVES. You folks on this list are the bestest. You have really broke me loose today and I will be forevermore grateful. I have some Turnbo relatives living in Decatur County. Their names are Paul and Dewey. Their father was Elvis Turnbo. He was a brother to my grandfather Ambrose Turnbo. I have their line back to John Andrew Turnbough b.1740 Alsance-Lorraine, France d. 1846 in Forked Deer TN. I told that to say I am searching-out the living. My grandmother Martha Warren Turnbo is buried at the Yarbro Cemetery in Decatur County. Texas is full of the descendants of John Andrew Turnbo.
