He was the illegitimate son of Anna Elizabeth Reid and Johann Jakob Helmerich. When he was five, his mother married a widower named Adam Henrich Hahn. Little is known about Reed’s early life, but he either enlisted or was drafted into the Hessian militia from the Hessen-Cassel region in modern-day Germany. He served in Company 2 of the Garrison Regiment von Wissenbach and endured several months of grueling training before his regiment was mobilized to aid the British during the American Revolution. Reed likely arrived in New York in June 1778, having travelled across the Atlantic with the second wave of Hessian troops who were intended to serve as replacements for the first wave that arrived in the Thirteen Colonies in October 1776. In November 1778, Reed’s regiment sailed from New York to Georgia and assisted with the capture of Savannah in December 1778. Reed could have fought during the initial capture of Savannah; during the Siege of Savannah the following year, when Franco-American forces unsuccessfully attempted to retake the important port city; or could have arrived with later forces.

  • 2015 Hazard Mitigation Plan
    COMMUNITY PROFILE 3 This section of the Plan provides a general overview of Mecklenburg County and its incorporated municipal jurisdictions. This section consists of the following five subsections: • GEOGRAPHY AND THE ENVIRONMENT • COMMUNITY QUICKFACTS • POPULATION, HOUSING AND DEMOGRAPHICS • GROWTH TRENDS AND LAND USE • DATA SOURCES Mecklenburg County was formed in 1762 from the western part of Anson County. The county was named for Princess Charlotte of Mecklenburg-Strelitz (1744-1818), who had become queen consort of King George III the previous year. Princess Charlotte is also the source of the Mecklenburg County seat’s name. In 1768 the part of Mecklenburg County west of the Catawba River became Tryon County. In 1792 the northeastern part of Mecklenburg County became Cabarrus County. Finally, in 1842 the southeastern part of Mecklenburg County was combined with the western part of Anson County to become Union County. GEOGRAPHY AND THE ENVIRONMENT Mecklenburg County is located in the south central portion of North Carolina and is bordered on the west by the Catawba River, on the north by Iredell County, on the east by Cabarrus and Union counties, and on the south by the State of South Carolina. North Carolina consists of 48,711 square miles of land and over 5,000 square miles of inland water including large areas of Lake Norman. The total area of nearly 54,000 square miles ranks North Carolina 29th in area among the states. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, Mecklenburg County contains a total area of 546 square miles, of which 526 square miles is comprised of land and the remaining 20 square miles is water.

  • The North Carolina Historical Review
    The North Carolina Historical Review Volume XIV April, 1937 Number 2 CHILD-LABOR REFORMS IN NORTH CAROLINA SINCE 1903 By Elizabeth Huey Davidson In 1903 North Carolina adopted its first child-labor law. It was a weak measure, forbidding the employment of children un- der twelve in factories, establishing a maximum of sixty-six hours a week for persons under eighteen, and providing no machinery for enforcement of the law. The passage of this measure had resulted from a slow growth of sentiment against the evils of child labor, and its terms represented a compromise between the reformers and the cotton manufacturers of the State. There was no organization to push further legislation, however, until the formation of the National Child Labor Com- mittee in 1904. This committee was largely inspired by the work of Dr. Edgar Gardner Murphy of Montgomery, Alabama, and had at first a number of prominent Southerners on its mem- bership roll. For its Southern secretary the committee chose Dr. Alexander J. McKelway, a Presbyterian clergyman of Char- lotte, North Carolina. The law of 1903 had been in effect a year when the committee attempted to reopen the drive for legislation. Its effectiveness in that length of time cannot be judged accurately, since the re- port of the Commissioner of Labor for 1904 fails to record the number of children employed in manufacturing. 1 The general consensus of opinion expressed by the manufacturers to the com- missioner was that the law should be accepted in good faith, but that it should also be the last one of its kind.
