While this section contains no information of practical use for REEVES research, it is information that may be interesting to some:
Carol Reeves Web Site: Have you ever wondered what you would find if you typed in www.reeves.com? Well, wonder no more. Carol Reeves has a site known as "ARTWORKS," where she has posted a number of her beautiful paintings. Nice to know we have an accomplished artist in the family!
Roger Reeves wins case at Supreme Court: Roger Reeves, 57, a supervisor at a Mississippi manufacturing plant, was fired after 40 years of service, a few months after a superior had told him he was "too damn old to do the job." Although a jury ruled in Reeves' favor, the judgment was reversed by a Court of Appeals. Reeves then took the case to the Supreme Court of the U.S., which ruled in his favor and laid down ground rules on what it takes for an age bias case to merit a jury trial. Thanks to Roger for striking a blow for all us old codgers!
REEVES is the 343rd most popular name in the U.S., based on the 1990 census.
USS REEVES: Two ships have been named the USS REEVES. The first was a destroyer named after a medal of honor winner - Thomas James Reeves, who has a site above under 'FAMOUS REEVES." The second was named after Admiral Joseph Mason Reeves upon decommissioning of the first USS Reeves. Admiral Reeves is also covered under 'FAMOUS REEVES." Since no one site covers all the information existing on these ships, I suggest you also go to www.google.com, click on the "Advanced Search Mode," enter USS Reeves in the "Exact Phrase" field, and you will be taken to a listing of many other sites which are available on the Reeves ships. The only active web site I am aware of can be reached by clicking on "USS REEVES" above. It is quite interesting with pictures and streaming video. If you are interested in a short biography of the namesakes and history of both of the ships named USS REEVES, go to http://www.hazegray.org/danfs/escorts/de156.htm
