General Notes: Husband - Samuel Reid


In early life he lived near New Castle, Lawrence County, Pennsylvania, and was a distiller, owning a large plant near his residence. In 1812 he moved to Beaver County, locating in Independence township, where he built a distillery, but decided not to operate it. The attitude of many people toward drinking and the manufacture of spirituous liquors had changed somewhat in the intervening time, and upon thoughtful and earnest consideration of the matter he came to the conclusion that his was not a legitimate line of business, and straightway he discontinued the manufacture of his products. He later moved to Hopewell township, purchasing a farm of three hundred and twenty acres, which he cultivated for the rest of his life. He and his family were members of the Associate Church of Scottsville, known as the Ohio congregation.


General Notes: Wife - Agnes Scott


She died when about sixty-three years of age.
