Biography

William Blythe’s daughter Margaret married Captain John Reed, who had commanded the “Paxton Boys." Her tract (near White Deer, Northumberland County, Pennsylvania) was patented to (her husband) Captain Reed in 1774. Her children by Captain Reed were William, (father of James Reed, who still resides near Hartleton, and grandfather of Doctor Uriah Reed, of Jersey Shore, and of Robert Reed, now of Clearfield, Pennsylvania,) James, who moved west, and Elizabeth, who married John Armstrong. Captain Reed died before 1778, and, with "the Runaway" of that year, the Reeds went to Cumberland County. William Reed's family remained there until some years after, when he came up and settled in Hartley township. Captain Reed's widow (Margaret Blythe) married (second) Captain Charles Gillespie, an officer of the Revolution, and raised a second family - Edward Gillespie, Susanna, (married to Arthur Thomas,) Eleanor, Charles junior, Thomas, and John. By a division of the place, the lower half, one hundred and seventy-six acres, fell to Charles Gillespie and wife, the upper to the Reeds, who conveyed it, on the 6th of May, 1796, to Gillespie and wife.

The Gillespies all went west, except Edward, who hung himself, many years ago, at the old homestead, which passed into the hands of the late Daniel Ludwig, Esquire. Margaret Blythe survived the fortunes of her second family, and took refuge with her first husband's children. She died at her son's, William Reed, in Hartley township, and her remains were interred in the graveyard at Kester's school-house.1
