NOTE: Information on some of my known family line is from a work by Emma Barrett Reeves, author of "Reeves Review, Book II, Memorial Volume, 1996". A secondary reference source of great value is "Reliques of the Rives," by James Rives Childs, 1929. I have also extracted information from a work by Arthur Ray Rowland entitled "Wiley Reeves, His Descendants and Ancestors." Most of these books can be found in most large genealogical libraries, such as the National Archives and Family History Centers. "Reliques of the Rives" can be obtained in paperback form from Heritage Books, Inc. in Bowie, MD. Reeves Review II is no longer available from the publisher.  Copies of Reeves Review II can sometimes be found on used book sites., or accessed online at http://www.joesue.com/Books/RRII/R000.htm. The work by Arthur Ray Rowland can be obtained from its author at RRow999@aol.com. I also acknowledge and thank Elsie Peugh of Thomaston, Ga., and numerous others who have contributed bits and pieces to my knowlege of my family history.
