Commemorative Biographical Record of Kent County, Ontario, J.H. Beers & Co., Toronto, 1904, pg. 332-333:
John Reeder is well remembered in Orford township, County of Kent, as a citizen who in his day ranked among the most highly respected and influential in the locality. He had lived in the township for early manhood, and was well known throughout his section of the county.
Mr. Reeder was born Sept. 11, 1810, in Derbyshire, England, of which county his parents, Henry and Ann (Black) Reeder, were also natives. In 1819 the family came to Canada, and for a few years, until the father's death, lived as "squatters" upon land in Aldborough, County of Elgin, Ont. After the father died John, then eighteen years of age, walked to St. Thomas, Ont., over the trails, to try to get a grant of land in Howard township, County of Kent, from Col. Talbot. The Colonel told him he was too young to get a grant, whereupon the lad replied, "I may be too young but I am large enough;" and the Colonel, pleased at the answer, gave him the land, 100 acres in Howard township. Accordingly the same year (1828) he removed thither from the County of Elgin with his mother and two sisters. Thence they moved to Orford township, same county, where Mrs. Reeder died in 1845. To Henry and Ann (Black) Reeder were born three children: Charlotte married Thomas Scane, and both are now deceased; Sarah married John Gosnell, and they were the parents of George A. Gosnell, who was reared by John Reeder; John is the subject proper of this article. The father, Henry Reeder, had also two sons by a previous marriage, Henry and George, both now deceased.

Gosnell, one of the leading agriculturists of Orford township, County of Kent, lives on Lot 3, Concession 6, where he owns a farm of sixty-seven and one half acres, and has a fine brick house, which he built in the spring of 1903. He came to this property Aug. 11, 1868, and was born on an adjoining farm Aug. 11, 1856, a son of John and Sarah (Reeder) Gosnell, who were natives of County Cork, Ireland, and Derbyshire, England, respectively. They were married in Howard township, County of Kent, and the mother died in January, 1865, aged fifty-three years, while the father died in Orford township, in August, 1870, aged eighty-seven years. They were buried in the Gosnell cemetery. These two most excellent people were among the founders of the Methodist Church.
