John Reid
I am looking for information about my great-grandfather, John Reid.He was born in Ireland in 1838, place of birth and names of parents unknown.Apparently, his family was involved in shipbuilding, and probably came from Scotland originally. John came to Canada sometime prior to 1858.In that year he married Catherine Phillips (b. 1832) of Hallowell, Prince Edward Co., Ontario.They farmed in Hastings Co., Ontario for a number of years, and had a large family.John may have died in Kent Co., Ontario, date unknown.
