AUST! N 1 TEXAS 7870 1 June 11, 1968 Miss Eunice 323B Marguerit Corona del Mar, Calif. 92625 Dear Miss I've just come across your query concerning the Reeves­ Rives-Crooke families in The Virginia Genealogist, Vol 8, No . 2, April-June, 1964 During the past several years I've done a great deal of work on the Reeves-Rieves-Rives family, including two inter­ marriages with people named Crook or Crooke. I'm a descendant of Burgess Reeves (Burgis Rives) , born in 1746 in what became Granville Co., N. C., and died in the Pendleton District, South Carolina, from which district he served in the South Carolina militia during the Revolution. I've followed sub­ stantially all of his descendants and hope to publish a gene­ alogy of the Reeves-Rives family in the next few years. Burgess was the son of Wm. Rives III, born around 1690- 1700 in Virginia, died 1751 in Granville Co., N. C. He was the son of Wm. Ryves II, born around 1672, probably in Vir­ ginia and died in Virginia (no proof), son of Wm. Rives or Ryves I . William Ryves or Rives I was born circa 1636, presumably in Oxfordshire, England, baptised at St. Mary and Magdalen, Oxford; died after 1695 in America, probably in Southern part of Virginia. In 1684-5 he was listed amon8 the tax payers in Southworke Parish, Surry Co . , Virginia. He had sons George, Robert, Johm, Timothy, and William. The Parish Register of Albemarle Parish, Virginia, 1717-1778, lists children of Georg~ John, Christopher, and Richard Rives baptised there between 1742 and 1778, and innumerable Rives, both men and women, acted as sponsors of other children there. Page 2 I don't know whether or not the William Ryves called the "emigrant" is the Wm . Reeves listed by Nugent in "Cavaliers and Pioneers," as coming to America in 1652 . There was a Wm . Rives in Chowan Precinct, N. c., in 1718 when he sold 15 acs . on the Moraltuck River. I have a reference to the will of George Rives (born c. 1660 - died after 1719) who was in Prince George Co . , Va . , and his nephew George Rives (son of Timothy) born c. 1698, died 6/1/1746, Surry Co . , Va . I have no proof (except tradition) that Wm . Ryves, the emigrant, was the son of Timothy Ryves (born c. 1588 in Eng­ land; died 9/1/1643 in Oxford, England), a "Gentleman and steward" of the University of Oxford . In 1644 he was a sub­ stantial tax payer in Oxford . His first wife Mary died 11/8/1629 , his second wife Elizabeth died 1/6/ 1643, both in Oxford . Timothy was the son of Richard Ryves (born c . 1547), who was the son of John Ryves and Amye Harvey. John lived at Damory Court, Blandford Forum, County Dorset (21 miles S. W. of Salisbury, England), which I visited in 1966. The old 3 or 4 story house known as Damory Court had been turned into a hotel . The alms house George Ryves . gave the town of Bland­ ford Forum is still operating and has the Ryves crest on its south wall with an inscription "George Ryves, Armiger," then some Latin, and the date 1682. The Ryves chapel, windows, and effigies in the church of St. Peter and Paul, Blandford Forum, were destroyed in the "Great Fire of 1731" which des­ troyed most of the town. John Ryves was the son of Robert Ryves and his wife Joan, who received several grants from Henry VIII, including Damory Court. Robert was born circa 1490 possibly in France, came to Dorsetshire with Roger de Amory, a French knight, and died at Blandford Forum 2/11/1551. Robert is the earliest one I know of. If this appears to be your Rives line, I'd like very much to know what additional information you may have, especially as to William Ryves, emigrant. I have more details as to collateral lines in each generation. I'll be glad to hear from you . Y~e:~t\2w Louise Kirk 1631 Donalor Drive Escondido CA 92027 March 28, 1976 Dear Mis~, Thank you for your response to my query. First, I'm sorry but t here was a typoeraphical error and 11 Vav11 shoul d have been Van Reeves. I have James Reeves will written in 1822 in Stark County Ohio. In it he names the following children: Johanna, Nelly, Aaron (he possibly moved to New Jersey), Martha, Abi gail, Eunice, James, Manassa, and Van VanMeter Reeves. He names his wife as Sarah. Both he and his wife died in 1827 in Stark County Ohio. To d~te I have not found a county histD17Y that gi ves me any information. James Downing was an executor of the est at e . The Van Reeves you found in Brown County Ohio in 1850 is James ' son. Van, first married Rachal e ~llenton 11 Sept. 1817 in Stark County. She died 5 Sept. 1835 in Guernsey County Ohio. Their children were: John m. Lydia Sims, l~nassa m. Mary McFaland 2nd. Matilda Hall Hawkes , Rach;:iel, Hester, Nathaniel, Permelia m. Davidson, Mari a m. Sieler, ~ra m. Stull and Van Van Meter (died in Civil 1"1'ar ). He second married Matilda Stull (no date, mut ma'Bt have been immedi ately since first child was born July 1836. Children by second wi fe : Hannah, William , Lydia m. John Feustal, Ma rgar et Reeves , ~nd rew J . Reeves m. Ella Dimick. By 1847 this family was in Hamilton County Ohio. The family moved to Muscct ine County Iowa wher e I find them in 1860. He died in 1872 in Rock Island County, Illinois which is just across the Mississpppi River from Muscatine County. They seem to have moved back and forth between the t wo counties. His second wife died in 1881. I do not find them in a cQ.lnty histovy either. Ma.nassah Reeves married Mary McFarland in Ross County Ohio in 1842 She died in Nuscstine county Iowa in 1861. In 1862 he married Matilda !fall hawkes . He was in the Civil War and I hawe his r ecords. Matilda lived until 1923. I have found them in a history of Rock Island County. From Manassah on I have a pr etty good r ecord of t he family and quite a lot on Van Van Met er. Sometime I see the name as Van Meter without the first Van . Sincerely, \ ' i ALPHABETICAL LISTING OF FAMILY NAMES PATERNAL ANCESTORS AND CONTEMPORARIES KATHRYN R. REEVES <MRS. GEORGE I REEVES> 201 FRIAR PLACE FULLERTON, CA 92635 U.S.A.

  • Race, Civil Rights, and the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Judicial Circuit
    RACE, CIVIL RIGHTS, AND THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FIFTH JUDICIAL CIRCUIT By JOHN MICHAEL SPIVACK A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE COUNCIL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 1978 Copyright 1978 by John Michael Spivack ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS In apportioning blame or credit for what follows, the allocation is clear. Whatever blame attaches for errors of fact or interpretation are mine alone. Whatever deserves credit is due to the aid and direction of those to whom I now refer. The direction, guidance, and editorial aid of Dr. David M. Chalmers of the University of Florida has been vital in the preparation of this study and a gift of intellect and friendship. his Without persistent encouragement, I would long ago have returned to the wilds of legal practice. My debt to him is substantial. Dr. Larry Berkson of the American Judicature Society provided an essential intro- duction to the literature on the federal court system. Dr. Richard Scher of the University of Florida has my gratitude for his critical but kindly reading of the manuscript. Dean Allen E. Smith of the University of Missouri College of Law and Fifth Circuit Judge James P. Coleman have me deepest thanks for sharing their special insight into Judges Joseph C. Hutcheson, Jr., and Ben Cameron with me. Their candor, interest, and hospitality are appre- ciated. Dean Frank T. Read of the University of Tulsa School of Law, who is co-author of an exhaustive history of desegregation in the Fifth Cir- cuit, was kind enough to confirm my own estimation of the judges from his broad and informed perspective.

  • The Fifth Circuit Four: the Unheralded Judges Who Helped to Break Legal Barriers in the Deep South Max Grinstein Junior Divisio
    The Fifth Circuit Four: The Unheralded Judges Who Helped to Break Legal Barriers in the Deep South Max Grinstein Junior Division Historical Paper Length: 2,500 Words 1 “For thus saith the Lord God, how much more when I send my four sore judgments upon Jerusalem, the sword, and the famine, and the noisome beast, and the pestilence, to cut off from it man and beast.”1 In the Bible, the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse are said to usher in the end of the world. That is why, in 1964, Judge Ben Cameron gave four of his fellow judges on the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit the derisive nickname “the Fifth Circuit Four” – because they were ending the segregationist world of the Deep South.2 The conventional view of the civil rights struggle is that the Southern white power structure consistently opposed integration.3 While largely true, one of the most powerful institutions in the South, the Fifth Circuit, helped to break civil rights barriers by enforcing the Supreme Court’s decision in Brown v. Board of Education, something that other Southern courts were reluctant to do.4 Despite personal and professional backlash, Judges John Minor Wisdom, Elbert Tuttle, Richard Rives, and John Brown played a significant but often overlooked role in integrating the South.5 Background on the Fifth Circuit The federal court system, in which judges are appointed for life, consists of three levels.6 At the bottom are the district courts, where cases are originally heard by a single trial judge. At 1 Ezekiel 14:21 (King James Version).

JJudgeudge CharleneCharlene CCharletharlet DDayay wwithith LLawyersawyers Dear Chief Judge and Judges of the 19th JDC, It has come to my attention that our Court is about to approve a policy concerning the use of cellphones in our courthouse. I am told that what is being considered is that only attorneys with bar cards and court personnel will be allowed to bring a cellphone into our courthouse. On behalf of the Baton Rouge Bar Association, I request that we be allowed some input into this decision. I understand that the incident that prompted this policy decision is a person using a cellphone to video record a proceeding in a courtroom. That conduct, of course, is unacceptable. I would like to address with the Court options other than banning cellphones. I would suggest we use signs telling those in the courtroom that, if they wish to use their cellphone, they need to walk out into the hallway and that, if anyone is caught using a cellphone in the courtroom, the cellphone will be taken away and they will be held in contempt of court. The bailiff can announce this before the judge takes the bench. 2013 BOARD OF DIRECTORS Here is our concern: As you know, there are no payphones in the courthouse. Scenario 1: One of our citizens comes to our courthouse as a witness in a trial or to come to the clerk’s offi ce for some reason.
