2. James C. Reeve, b. c1846

New Paltz Independent, 19 Apr 1895
Dr. Isaac Reeve died last week in the Albany Hospital, aged about seventy-six years. The remains were brought to New Paltz for interment and were accompanied by Charles Reeve, of Goshen, a brother of the deceased and by his two sisters; also by Brewster DuBois of Marlborough. A number of New Paltz friends likewise followed the remains to the cemetery where the interment took place on Friday.
Dr. Reeve practiced in our village for several years about fifty years ago. He then returned to his old home in Orange county, and practiced for a time at Goshen. Afterwards he moved to Warwick, Orange county, where he made a considerable sum of money by a fortunate investment in real estate. About twenty-four years ago he returned to New Paltz and purchased the farm of his father-in-law, the late Josiah DuBois, now occupied by W.H.D. Blake. After a few years he went to Dutchess county, where he practiced medicine, and afterwards resided at Oak Hill, Greene county, until the time of his death. - He leaves no family except his widow, his only son having died when a young man, during the residence of the family at New Paltz.
Mrs. Reeve has gone to live for the present with her brother Edward DuBois at Marlborough.
