STOKES REAMS, son of John Reams & Elizabeth Harrison

I don't have any information on Stokes Reams. But I wish someone did. I am trying to find info on William Harrison Reams or aka Harrison Reams. Information from some sites list Stokes as William Harrison's father. But I'm not sure if this is correct. William Harrison was deputy sheriff of Laurel Co., Ky and was stabbed to death in 1854, so census records preceding 1850 are of no help. In the 1850 Census William Harrison was a neighbor of Bartlett Reams, who is the brother of Stokes. But William Harrison was listed as Harrison Jr. That doesn't sound like he's the son of Stokes. If Harrison Jr was the son of Stokes other brother Harrison, his age group is not on the 1830 census. The only thing that would make since is if William Harrison were the son of John Reames and Betty Harrison, but no records indicate this. But it would fit into the age groups on the 1830 John Reames census and Betty Harrison would have only been 38 at the time. But again, Jr. on the 1850 Census is confusing. William Harrison was born in 1818 and married Jane Settles.
If you have any info on this individual or Stokes, I would appreciate receiving it.
