The funeral will take place today at 2 o'clock at the Presbyterian Church, Rev. Mr. Campbell officiating. Mr. Ream had been a resident of the valley since 1901. He was a native of Ohio, having been born at Canton in that state April 30, 1837. He afterward moved into the northwestern part of the state and became one of the pioneers of it. He lived for some years in Ada before coming to Arizona. He leaves a widow, Mrs. Emma Ream and a son Clarence Ream. ~~~~~~ Courtesy of Linda Ream

O.V.I. - Civil War. ~~~~~ An excerpt from the unpublished work of VERDA REAM PIFER on the descendants of George & Frances Dice Ream.
===================
Samuel D. Ream was supposed to have donated the land that the Mennonite Chapel was built upon (if the author's memory of the story is correct) and thus, the author thought the following --presented online by the Mennonite Gospel of Herald-- might be appropriate to show here:

'The advent of Sunday schools had a broadening effect on the horizons of Mennonite youth as the nineteenth century moved toward its close. This is illustrated in the Menno Chapel Sunday school at New Stark in Hancock County. Organized in 1878 after the erection of a Mennonite meetinghouse at Reams's Corners the Chapel Sunday school was conducted as a union school. Presbyterians taught in the classes, though the superintendent was a Mennonite. The influence of other religious groups became a threat to the Mennonites, and Umble says, "Their fears were not without foundation." Some felt that it had been a mistake to move from Bluffton to New Stark. ' http://www.mcusa-archives.org/library/omh/omh2.5/2.5_0005.htm"
