We are looking for our Sally REESE from Bedford Co., VA. Does anyone recognize any of these folks below. I am including only the children and their children. Thanks, -Sherry Sally REESE Sally is listed in the 1820 and 1830 Bedford Co., VA. This puts her birthdate between 1760-1770. 1788 Slowman REES to Sally G. REESE Bill of Sale of personal property. Deed Book #8, pg 83. (This is probably not our Sally considering the date.) 1820 Bedford Co., VA lists Sally REESE 2 Males 10-16, 1 Male 16-26 (3 Farmers), 1 Female 10-16, 2 Females 16-26, and 1 Female 45-Older. William and Robert W. are already married. 1820 Bedford Co., VA also lists: Robert, and Stephen REES no twp listed, and William B. REESE. 1830 Bedford Co., VA Census lists: David B. #152, Featherstone #146, James R.#132, Joseph T. #146, Sally #163, and William #139. REECE, William twp - Bethel, Bedford Co., VA 1830 Lincoln Co., TN Census lists REESE: Jacob #212 with Males 1 under 5, 1 30-40 and Females 1 under 5 and 1 20-30. John #212, with Males 1 10-15, 2 20-30, and 1 50-60 and Females 1 10-15 and 1 50-60. Littleberry #201 with Males 1 20-30 and Females 1 20-30.

The children of Sally REESE receive land from Littleberry LEFTWICH in his will that includes her heirs dated 30 May 1823 and rec 23 Jun 1823 (Will Book 5, pg 419 Bedford Co., VA) I have thoroughly researched the LEFTWICH line, and find no connection to our Sally. Perhaps she was a sister to one of Littleberry LEFTWICH's wives probably Frances HOPKINS considering the dates. Deed Book 22, pg 368 14 May 1831 lists Sally and all the children's names as they are selling the land that they were given in the will of Littleberry LEFTWICH. I have yet to prove any connection of Sally to Littleberry or his family. It lists the men's (her sons) names and the first names of the men's wives. Wilkerson, Parthenia and Flemin are listed alone. Parthenia is listed as head of household in the 1850 Census of Lincoln Co., TN with some children, perhaps nieces and nephews. It does list that the children were born in TN. Some additional research must be done on the daughters (Ann, Martha, and Nancy) who did not move to Lincoln County, TN as the sons did. Perhaps they stayed in Bedford Co., VA and there may be a link to their father is some document there. There is a Sarah REESE d 31 Dec 1851 aged 89 years (which would mean born abt. 1762 on a tombstone in Bedford Co., TN. I believe this could be her. She seems a little bit too old.
