Reeves family of Fareham
« on: Thursday 23 October 25 18:59 BST (UK) »
Hi, I'm currently researching my ancestor Barton Reeves of Fareham Hampshire born about 1690 son of Catherine Barton. He owned some property in Shalfleet, Alverstoke and Fareham. I know he inherited a portion of this from his uncle Roger Barton, but I'm trying to research Barton's father's side, the Reeves family, there are some papers for the Reeves family in the JER/BAR/3 collection on the national archives. But I'm struggling to connect the line of inheritance or who Barton's father was. I'd really appreciate any help. Thank you!  :)
