David Reece b. abt. 1823 d. 5-2-1899 married Susannah Brewer b. abt. 1823
d. 2-26-1910 – Married Rogersville, Hawkins County, Tennessee 6-18-1835.
When they first arrived in Kentucky they lived in Owsley and Lee Counties.
I assume they moved to Estill County sometime around the 1880's since I
have a copy of a deed for David Reece dated during that time. Both David
and Susannah are buried in John Reece Cemetery, Barnes Mountain, Estill
County, Kentucky. Note: Lived on Richardson Creek when he and Susannah got
married. About twelve miles outside of Rogersville, Tennessee. Susannah
had a sister by the name of Elizabeth. Elizabeth was married to Joseph
Thomas. Susannah and Elizabeth's mother's name was Sarah. David Reece was
in the Civil War. Mustered in 7-30-1861, Camp Nelson, KY. Mustered out
10-13-1864. 3rd Sergeant, 3rd Regiment, Infantry, Company I. David Reece
