My great grandfather was James Reeves, supposedly an eastern shipbuilder in the US at the turn of the 20th century, and possibly nicknamed "Big Jim Reeves." I think his wife's name was Eleanor. My grandmother was his daughter, Zelda Reeves, who married Gordon Riley. I believe my Grandmother Zelda had a half sister named Irma who married awealthy rancher in Wyoming, named Larry Larum, or similar.

Any recognition of anything here would be appreciated, and thank you.
