Hi I found a message you posted online indicating your interest in Reeve(s) genealogy. I wanted to make you aware of The Reeves Project, a global collaboration of Reeves researchers working on all different Reeves families across the US and England. You can find us at
https://thereevesproject.org/data/tiki-index.php?page=HomePage_Wiki
This project began in 2010 as a platform to document Reeves research based on and collaborate on research through YDNA connections. It's an extension of the older Reeves YDNA Project at FamilyTreeDNA. Basically this is a collection of resulting matches between Reeves men who have done the YDNA test. That particular kind of DNA passes from father to son only and changes very slowly. Therefore it can be used to find connections between Reeves family groups because Reeves men who match each other must be connected along the paternal line.
I'd encourage you to join and work on documenting your family with us. We're glad to help investigate those brick walls.
Jonathan Reeves
