SR was launched in early Feb 2011.  June 10th sounds about right for BMR.

Hmmm...

Why is it called "Black Market Reloaded"? Has there been a site called "Black Market" before the current one? I have a vague idea that that is the case...

No idea about a time frame, though.

There are earlier links to SR than Feb 2011...

Yes, I seem to recall there was and it was down for some time before BMR rose from the ashes.

Maybe a spin off from Silk Road?

Silk Road is always going to be known as the OG in the anonymous marketplace world.

I have always wondered how Silk Road started...As in how did SR market itself.? Did it start off with like 1-2 vendors and then just word of mouth? Or was it marketed in deep web forums? Can anyone share some insight as I have always been quite curious...

They were beat to the punch by a longshot.  "Farmer's Market" started back sometime around March 2006.  They originally operated over clearnet (I recall reading), but later shifted to TOR.  The site has since been shut down and the operators caught in April 2012. 
I think it's safe to say however SR will be known as the ones to revolutionize online drug sales by bringing it to the masses.
