Peter Reaks Flake Who Married Elizabeth Gibson

Hi Jewel, I know that you and I are researching the same lines.I am somewhat confused though.Was Elizabeth married three times?I know that Elizabeth Whitehead was married to Peter Flake and they had four children as far as I can determine, one of them being William.William served in the Confederacy with his half brother or step brother, Samuel Eaves, I believe.Anyway when Peter died Elizabeth married James Eaves after his wife, Hannah Hyde Eaves died.Is this a different Peter, Elizabeth, and William?My mother always called the Flakes children cousins because James Eaves daughter, Hester, was her grandmother and she grew up with the Flakes.I also wanted to let you know that I got information on James Ashmore and more especially I got his wife, Rebecca's info.I would e-mail you, but I ddidn't know whether you ever got over the scare about the virus.Rebecca was a Brasher.Her father was Thomas Brasher, III, but they spelled Rebecca's name Brashear.Thomas Brasher, III was married to a Naomia, but it was spelled Neomah.His father was Thomas II and Grandfather was Thomas whose father was William born in 1674.I found the information in a Brasher Family book by Charles Brasher in the York Co., SC Library in Rock Hill.James father was William.William was the son of Walter and I found this info in the Andreas file.Let me know about Peter and Elizabeth.
