Reuben farmed in Sophiasburg Township for his entire adult life farming near property owned by Roblins (relatives of his wife) in Demorestville RR 2.

The hamlet of Demorestville, named after Guillaume de Morest, a French Huguenot descendant, was a thriving community in the 1840s, bustling with activity and supporting a population of 400 people. A series of mills were built along the creek from Fish Lake to the Bay of Quinte. In addition to several mills, de Morest built a church which he turned over the Methodist faith. The 1861 Agricultural Census tells us that the 34 year old Reuben [8]
