General Notes: Husband - Joseph Reed
He was a gentleman of the old school. His fine personal appearance alone commanded respect everywhere. For honesty of principle, goodness and charity, he had no superiors, and his home was always characterized by generous hospitality. He always lived on the homestead of his father. He was for many years justice of the peace; and during all these years he had only two hearings before him, as he always used his influence to get an amicable settlement between the parties, rather than have a trial. Many other important positions of local trust were held by him. In his younger days he was a noted violinist, which art he kept in practice until a short time before his death.
He was ordained an elder in Chartiers U. P. Church, February 15, 1854, but a few years later severed his connections with this church, and afterward attended the U. P. Church at Venice, which was much nearer his home. He retired from active business many years before his death. His memory never became impaired, and his faculties for conversing even during the latter years of his life were remarkably clear.
