Reps served in Company A, Morgan's Regiment of the Texas Cavalry.

In 1896, he traded his homeplace near Old Bagdad to a nephew for land in Coleman County with the intention of moving his family there. Instead, due to the imminent birth of another child, be bought the homestead and rock house of Charles Babcock, six miles west of Leander in Travis County, Texas on the headwaters of Cross Creek. In the fall of 1896, the family moved to this house where Reps lived out his life. After Reps died in 1912, Mary Jane and the younger children, Mary, Clark, and Fifi, moved to Leander where Mary Jane bought a home, leaving sons, Lilburn and Bob to look after the homeplace and continue ranching.
