Elizabeth Reeve place of birth.
« on: Friday 04 November 11 16:13 GMT (UK) »
 Hi , Im trying to find the birth place of Elizabeth Reeve. She Married a John Lake on the 5 Nov 1735 at St Peter & St Paul Swaffham, Her parents were a John & Elizabeth Reeve,this information I have,but I cannot find her date of birth. I think the the year was 1714 the location could be East Dereham or Swaffham. I am hoping that the Good People of Rootchat can help me, any information about the above would be very much appreciated.

                                                                 Kind Regards,
                                                                                      Tomscot :-\

Hi Amber 39,
                   Thank you for your message.The information is the same as I have got to date. I have been trying to trace this family for some time,but it keeps coming back as you have stated. I however found a John Lake born December 4 1708 in East Dereham, his Father was a William Lake,and his Mother was a Elizabeth, no Surname,I wonder if her name could be Reeve.I shall carry on regardless. Thank you for your help,it was very much appreciated.

                                                            Kind Regards

I have Reeves from West Lexham, which isn't a million miles from Swaffham.

My 5x GGF Robert Symonds' daughter Mary married Thacker Reeve at West Lexham 27th December 1814 and they had John July 24th 1815 and Mary May 26th 1816, Robert December 15th 1817 and John February 3rd 1822.

Robert Married Jane and they had William Nov 18 1846, Mary Jane, Apr 16 1848, George Jan 15 1856 and Maria Mar 11 1858 and this family appears in both 1851 and 1871 census for West Lexham

May be of some help
