Note: the Gentry and Grimes families are not related to the Reeds, but were neighbors and close friends.

Edward Reed picked out the spot where he wished to be buried when he was old. However, his son Miles suddenly took sick and died at age 46, so Miles was the first to be buried in the cemetery. Edward was the second person buried there.  Rebecca is buried at Orr, Oklahoma, where she lived out her last days with her and Edward's daughter Lydia Reed Dickson.

 
This view is looking south. Edward and Miles owned the land you see.

Dear Betty Ellen Atkins,
      My name is Judie Hilton Porter. I only learned of the Reed Cemetery's existance earlier this year when I found my great-great grandparents were buried there. When I visited the graves, I was distressed to find that the original concrete markers (that you describe in your transcript) had been tossed into a ditch and replaced with small, metal funeral home markers. I am trying to find out when and why this was done. In the online transcript, you list H.N.Dean and Sara Dean. These are my gggrandparents. Instead of "H.N.", it should read "John". I know that you took that from the original marker because the "Jo" part  had broken off and only "hn Dean" remained. There are five members of the Dean family interred at Reed and all five markers have been replaced with the small metal ones. I was hoping you might be able to help me or maybe put me in touch with someone who can. I appreciate any help you might offer.
                                                                          Sincerely,
                                                                       J.Hilton Porter
