A biosketch reported [107]:
William S. Reed was also a native of the Old Dominion, born in Fauquier, and reared in Rockingham county, and the son of Sanders and Julia (Hatfield) Reed. The Reed family came originally from Ireland, and were early settlers of this country. William Reed followed agricultural pursuits in Virginia on a farm of 70 acres, until 1830, when finding that Ohio afforded great attractions, he emigrated to that state and settled in Columbiana County. He followed farming in that state until 1850, when he came to Indiana and took a farm in Union township, Elkhart county. He also bought a partly improved farm. On his farm in Union township Mr Reed passed the remainder of his days, dying in 1874. He was one of the most prominent men in the township, held office at different times, and was postmaster at South West at an early day. All his life was passed in hard labor, but he made and left his heirs a good property. Mr. Reed was twice married, first to a daughter of Joseph and Mary (Hoover) Wenger. Her parents died in Virginia, and Mrs. Reed died soon after coming to this country, December 20, 1850. She was sixty-five years of age and left five chidren: Abraham, Margaret, Mary A, Harriet, and Elizabeth. Besides there were two who died young. … After his first wife's death William Reed was married to Widow Guinther, of Goshen, and two children were born to them: Daniel and Emeline.
