The Orillia Packet, January 22, 1892- JARRATT’S CORNERS- The late Sarah Adair Reid was born in the island of Islay, Argyleshire, in 1794 or 1796, so that at her death last Tuesday she had attained the age of at least ninety-six years. She came to this country with her husband, the late Duncan Reid, and five children, in the fall of 1836. One of the children died in the quarantine hospital, Quebec, and another at Lachine. The immigrants were nine weeks on the ocean, and the journey from Quebec to Oro was correspondingly tedious. They settled on the farm still owned by her eldest son, Mr. Archibald Reid. Her husband died about six years ago, and Mrs. Reid has since resided with her son-in-law, Mr. Joseph Beard. She leaves two sons and two daughters, with several grandchildren and great grandchildren, all of whom reside in the vicinity. She enjoyed good health, though somewhat crippled, until within a fortnight of her decease.
