General Notes: Husband - John Reed


Soon after marriage he bought David Whitehill's settlement right of a tract of land, some of it cleared, and had a log house on it made of split hickory logs. In 1833 the land was sold at commissioners' sale (1,525 acres) at about eleven cents per acre. In 1821 he com-menced to clear and improve his property in or-der to provide a home for his family. He first built a log house and log barn, but later replaced these with a large brick residence and good barn, and made many other excellent and useful im-provements upon the place, converting it into one of the finest farms of the township. He also built a sawmill on Tarkill run, and successfully engaged in the manufacture of lumber for a num-ber of years.
