This John may be Henry Reeses great grandfather, great-great uncle or not related at all. The relationship, if any, needs to be proven, using extant public records. John and Mary Stembridge (Henry Reeses grandparents) migrated from Virginia to Wilson County, Tennessee, where he died in the 1811 and she died there about 1844. They are buried on the old homestead there in Wilson County.
