- Born: 23 Dec 1799, Nelson County, Kentucky
- Marriage: Elizabeth (Betsy) Ray on 16 Apr 1829 in Spencer County, Indiana
- Died: 23 Jan 1878, Hammond Township, Spencer County, Indiana at age 78
- Buried: 1878, Fairview Church Cemetery, Hammond Township, Spencer County, Indiana
 General Notes:
Married at the same time, in a joint ceremony, as his brother Charles.
His son, Andrew Jackson's, 1880 census listing states Reuben's place of birth as indiana.
Marriage license was issued on 8 Apr 1829, Spencer County, Indiana
* Also, Spencer County records list marriage date as 11 Apr 1829, not the 16th.
However, looking at the written record, I can see that the 6 looks very much like a 1, but I am in the belief that it is a 6.
