Elizabeth REESE ^{1 2 3}

  General Notes:

According to "Gallia Co., Ohio, People in History to 1980", Elizabeth helped her mother spin, weave, knit and cook for their family before she married. Her nickname was Betsey. Her marriage record in 1836 was the first record of this family being in Gallia County. The rest of her family appears in the 1840 census. Her father did not actually buy his property in Raccoon Twp., until 1841. Her family has very few names that it repeats amongst the generations surrounding Elizabeth.... In her siblings, Elizabeth, Mary and Ann are repeated, but the boys names all seem to vary. I can't tell where any of Elizabeth's children were named after her side of the family, and we don't know Thomas J. Morgan's side of the family to be able to check that. She is listed at age 58 in the 1880 census records for Jackson Co., Ohio. ^{5 6}
