General Notes: Husband - Robert Reed


He graduated at Edinburgh, Scotland, and was a minister of considerable repute and high standing in that country; but was called to Ireland to preach against the Arian heresy then creeping into the Presbyterian Church. The church Robert Reed established at Manor Cunningham, in County Donegal, Ireland, had at one time, it is said, as many as a thousand communicants, and his children and grandchildren were the sole occupants of the pulpit for over one hundred and fifty years.
