General Notes: Husband - William S. Reed


He was born in 1829. [GPHAV, 287]
He spent his entire life on a part of the family homestead in Highland town-ship, Clarion County, Pennsylvania. He died from injuries received while clearing his land, and left a wife and eleven children.

Reared on the home farm, he obtained a good practical education in the public schools of the locality, and also became thoroughly familiar with every department of farm work. In 1848 he purchased 180 acres of land adjoining the old homestead, and after clearing some of the land, he erected thereon a small house and made other improvements. He spent the remainder of his life on this farm. In 1877 he erected a commodious residence with all the modern improvements, and at the time of his death had converted the wild land into one of the most desirable and highly cultivated farms of Highland township.

In politics he was a Democrat, in religion a Presbyterian.
