Notes

1851 Census shows William Reeves was living in Cowl St, Shepton Mallet, Somerset. He was age 48, head of the household, married, occupation general lab, birthplace Shepton Mallet, Somerset. Also in the household was his wife M Reeves age 44, daughter A Reeves age 17, son R Reeves age 15, son J Reeves age 8, daughter Selina Reeves age 6 and daughter R. Reeves age 8.

I have been unable to find Joseph in the census records in England after 1851.
There is a death of a Joseph Reeves, age 25, on 18 November 1867 in Adelaide, South Australia that could possibly be for our Joseph. However, there was also a Joseph Reeves who was born in 1842 in Adelaide, so this death may also be for that Joseph Reeves.
