Raymond - I recognize that you posted this a number of years ago, so I don't know as you will receive this response.
I am not related to either Elizabeth Reed. However, my great Aunt Elizabeth Caroline Christopher married Elizabeth Reed's brother John Henry Reed in 1895 in Cannington Manor, Saskatchewan. What was interesting to me was that Elizabeth married Robert McIlvenna. Robert and Elizabeth can be found in the 1911 Canada census, Saskatchewan, Assinboia district, Township 4, page 5.Robert & Elizabeth were married 15 Oct 1878 in Ontario for which a marriage registration can be found on ancestry.com (His name is spelled 'McElvenna'.
I noted this particularly because my great-grandmother's name is Mary McIlvenna b. 1845, but she was born in Ireland and was a Roman Catholic, while Robert was Methodist, so I don't see that there would be a close connection.
