Vincent Monsure Reed was born in Allegany County, Pennsylvania, June 28, 1853, and died December 3, 1922, aged 69 years, 5 months and 5 days.

At the age of two years he came with his parents to Taylor County, Iowa. In 1873 he was united in marriage to Caroline Sweet [Swett] and to this union six children were born. John died at Camp Sheridan during the Spanish-American war and two children died in infancy. He is survived by two daughters, Mrs. Carrie Blotcher of Colorado and Mrs. Tine Raper of Blockton, [words missing] of Bedford. Also by three sisters, Mrs. Grove Brown of Blockton, and Mrs. Sherman Hennegin and Mrs. L. [ewis] P. [limpton] Jenkins [Icie Reed] both of Sheridan; three brothers, Miles A. [lfred] Reed and Jacob W. [olverton] Reed of Colorado and George B. [rown] Reed of Blockton, besides many nephews and nieces.

He resided in the west for many years, returning to Blockton about nine months ago, and has been bedfast most of the time since. He professed faith in Jesus Christ as his Savior and was baptised.

Funeral services were held at the Platteville church Monday afternoon at 3:30 conducted by A. G. Simmons, pastor of the Blockton M. E. church, and interment was made in the Platteville cemetery.
