Rebecca Black Reese was Cherokee Indian, and her husband William, was said to be half Cherokee, according to Reese researchers. They were said to be from the Cherokee Nation in Tennesee. The Black family came from Tennesse in or around 1820 and finally settled in Black, Reynolds, MO. It is believed William and Rebecca lived in Illinois perhaps through the 1830's & 1840s before coming to Reynolds county, MO. They were married in Marshall,Illinois. They owned land west of Black, MO. Her headstone is in Webb Cemetery in northern Reynolds county, off Rt. J, a few miles from Black, MO. Another headstone is near hers, mostly likely that of her husband, William Reese. This tombstone was heavily damaged. It is believed that Rebecca died in the early 1870s. https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/22345458/rebecca-reese [S1543] Ancestry.com, Illinois, Compiled Marriages, 1790-1860, (Name: Ancestry.com Operations Inc; Location: Provo, UT, USA; Date: 2004;).
