Jim and his family came to Dakota Territory in the spring of 1883 and worked the Brule farm for a number of years. After moving to Beresford, he became engaged in the livery business for about four years. Afterwards, he became involved in farming to a limited degree. In 1907, he proved up on a homestead in western South Dakota.
Eighteen months before his death, James began to grow weak. Treatments proved to be futile; and after his death, his body was returned home for burial. He was survived by four of his children: J. L. Reedy of Beresford, SD; T. E. Reedy of Yankton, SD; Mary Graves of Nevada, Iowa; and Mrs. Kate Bulow of Beresford, SD. In addition to his six children, James was preceded in death by two brothers, Jeremiah and Patrick Reedy; and by two sisters, Mrs. Patrick Ryan and Mrs. John Ryan.
