Abraham Reece, b. about 1750, came from PA to what is now Yadkin Co. but was then Rowan. Supposedly he came as a bound child -- an apprentice -- although no record has been found yet. He eventually joined the Deep Creek Meeting near Boonville and is buried in that cemetery. Abraham Reece himself took in at least two orphan children to raise. Was this particularly encouraged by the Quakers, or was it just very common in this time period when so many parents died young?
