General Notes: Husband - Colin MacFarquahar Reed

---

His father was the first president of the Franklin Bank, which was organized in 1836. Colin M. was elected to the same position in 1852, and held it until the same institution was organized in 1865 as the First National Bank, of which he was elected president, and held the office without intermission until his death. In 1855 he was made a director of the Hempfield Railroad Company, and continued one until it was merged into the Baltimore & Ohio. From 1841 he was a trustee of Washington Female Seminary, and one of the largest stockholders. He was a trustee of Washington and Jefferson College until his death. He was a member of the first board organized in 1843 for the management of the common schools of Washington. He was for years president of the Washington Gas Company and of the board of trustees of the Washington Cemetery. During the Civil war he acted as treasurer and general agent for Washington County in behalf of the Christian Commission. He was also very much interested in the temperance cause, and in the Bible Society. He was a trustee of the First Presbyterian Church, and served as treasurer for twenty-seven years. He was not a politician in the sense that he sought office, but was always very much interested in the success of the Republican party. [CBRWC, 191]
