COPY OF LETTER FROM ROLLINS LOUNDS REAVES

Ocoee, Orange County, Florida
April 4th, 1899

Clerk of Court Probate
Horry County S. C.

Dear Sir:

My father, Mark Reaves, lived and died in your county - died about 1820 possible a little before or a litte later. I am the youngest child and was borned on the 1st day of Jan 1810. I had several brothers and sisters viz. John, Mark, Solomon, James, Polly, Candice, Sarah, Nancy. Polly and Candice married Jacob and Joshua Johnson - brothers.

I moved from the district when I was eight or 10 years old and lost the tract of our family. I moved away with the Johnsons named above. I am informed that my father left a will devising his estate. He lived near the ford of Simpson Creek on the road leading from some point in North Carolina to Shell landing on the Wakama River. I may have this name of river wrong.

I do not know the description of the lands he owned but think he owned lands on both sides of the road I mention. I am also informed that the Johnsons mentioned were named as the executors of the will. Now I have never received anything from the estate, in fact, it has been in recent years that I have learned about the matter. One Frank Reaves of Lake County of this state - a grandson of my brother Mark Reaces, who visited me about Christmas gave me some information about the matter.

Now I write this letter and ask that you write me if the Will of Mark Reaves whom I described or mentioned above is in the records of your county and what disposition has been made of the estate. Any fee or fees you are entitled to will be forwarded on demand.

You will see by the date of my birth that I am 88 years old and am consequently not posted as to the proper course these mattters take or what fees to forward. Please make examination and forward answer at once and oblige

truly yours,
Rollins Lounds Reaves

[written at the bottom is:]
the name Reaves is spelled Reeves by some and Reaves bo others of our family.
