The cemetery known as the Reed Cemetery, actually contains no known members of the Reed family.  It was given this name because it is located on land once owned by the Reed family.  Earlier, it was known as the Horn Cemetery.  Located on private property in the West End of Packer Township, it is within a small stand of woods, roughly triangular in shape, at a place where three fields come together.  There may be twice as many burials as shown above, but some of the stones may have been taken, buried, or just broken beyond recognition.  Some of the stones still standing are so illegible and worn, I couldn't include them here.  There is at least one member of the Hinkle family buried here, but that surname is the only thing that can be read on the very worn stone.  Some small stones have only initials on them, including an "H" for the second initial, which may indicate more Hinkles or maybe Horns are buried here.  This is probably the oldest cemetery in the valley.  Supposedly, Philip Hoffecker, a veteran of the Revolutionary War, was buried here in  1796.
