... WM. S. REID, son of Daniel Reid, was born in Rockbridge county, Va., December 10, 1818. He removed with his father's family to Preble county, Ohio, in 1822; and in 1823 to Richmond. He married May 7, 1839, Sarah Jane Mansur, by whom he had nine children, of whom only Sarah M., Clara M., and Mansur C., are living. Mr. Reid was for a time a clerk in the land office at Fort Wayne; on a farm in Allen county about twelve years; in the dry goods trade in Richmond three years; and for several years in the pork-packing business, in which, as one of the firm of Vanneman, Reid & Co., he still continues. He was also for a number of years, with C.C. Beeler, engaged in the grocery trade, which they discontinued in 1870. ...
