My Marcena Vance's children were Rebecca, Harriet Josephine, James, Vashti, Barbara Ann, Alexander, Jr.; Thomas A., John H., Abraham Lincoln, Daisy, Lorena, and Susannah Reeves. The last three girls were born after the death of her husband Alexander Reeves and we don't know who their father was. She brought the girls and her youngest son Abe out West in the early 1870s. We don't know if she came with another family or came planning to meet someone here. I never saw the name Marcella until she started using it when she was much older. Carole in Portland
