Royal Lineage of Colonel George Reade
Letter Regarding Royal Lineage by Velma
Iretta Dickens, 1984
Obituary - Velma Iretta Dickens Reaves,
1906-1998
Memorial to Frances Reaves Young, 1924-1999
Back in 1974 after I married
Kristina Jo Merchant, her mother, Frances Reaves Young,
introduced me to genealogy. She is responsible for
spawning my interest in this enjoyable hobby. Frances
passed away in March of 1999. She left a magnificent legacy of inspiration to her family and many
other individuals. I have included a memorial to
her linked to this page (see above).
Frances' mother, Velma Iretta
Dickens Reaves, also a genealogy enthusiast, who passed
away in 1998, sent her great-grandchildren a letter at
Christmas in 1984 regarding their royal lineage.
The letter puts such information in perspective, so I
have linked the letter along with the article on Royal
Lineage of Col. George Reade to this page.
Grandmother Reaves didn't have the opportunity to publish
her work other than to her descendants. I give her
full credit for the genealogical efforts. I have
added some historical information only to further enhance
that perspective. Thanks to Grandmother
Reaves for her many years of research.
It is my intent, in the future, to
add more information regarding the surnames listed above;
however, I'll reserve that for that later time.
