Pioneer Seth Reed and Erie County Settlers
Seth Reed, a Revolutionary War officer and early Erie County settler born in Rhode Island in 1744, died March 10, 1797. The narrative traces his move from Uxbridge Massachusetts to Ontario County New York, then to the Presque Isle area, where he and his family traveled by boat in 1795, camped on the peninsula, and encountered local militia and friendly Native people during the opening of what would become a major shipping hub.

Early Erie settlement and Reed family history notes
Fragmentary text traces the Reed family and other settlers in the Erie area from 1795, noting Colonel Reed’s dwelling at the mouth of Min Creek and the first tavern named Presque Isle, plus arrivals of Thomas Reed, John Grubb, and early residents. It also briefly mentions baseball references and manager comments amid jumbled OCR.
