  • Notes 
    • 1840 Hickman Co TN census shows a John RIVES about four names away from a James M. Whitfield. Chances are that there is a WHITFIELD in the REEVES background.
    • (Research):Several REEVES are found in the 48th TN, Co G, with HR Walker: Robert Reeves, H. Reeves, N. Reeves, B. Reeves. [History of Hickman Co TN] I ordered the service record for Robert Reeves, in hopes that it will prove to be this Robert Reeves. Ordered 12 May 2007 from NARA through their Online! site.
