Jackie,
Marcennia, AKA Marcena Vance was my gggrma, wife of Alexander Reeves of Sangamon Co., IL.The story that her father was a fur-trapper during the winter and the rest of the year he had a river boat was passed down but not his name.
Marcena said that she was born in what is now WV and that the family then moved to OH for a while.Somehow she ended up in Sangamon Co., IL and in 1846 married at the age of 18 to 53 yr old Alexander Reeves of Gardner township.
This week I just connected all of the dots that connect her to siblings Thomas J., George W., and father James to my family.I would love to exchange info with you.Where did you find Marcennia's name?
