Is anyone descended from one of the children of William and Sarah REEVES, who were married in Rugeley, Staffordshire, in October 1812? I'd like to know what happened to

Margaret (christened Rugeley 1 Jan 1816),
Samuel (christened Mavesyn Ridware 14 Dec 1817),
Thomas (christened Mavesyn Ridware 4 Juy 1819), and
William (christened Rugeley 11 Jan 1821)

If anyone knows where they moved, who they married,  and what occupations they took up, I could really use your help. Information on any of them will be much appreciated!

Hi Mainegirl,


On 1851 census I have found a Samuel Reeves with his family.  Not sure if this is your Samuel but thought I would post it just in case.
