The Reid Center, formerly the Reid Memorial Presbyterian Church, was dedicated to the benefactor, Daniel Gray Reid’s parents, Daniel and Ann Gray Reid.

Daniel Gray Reid (1858-1925) was born near Richmond, Indiana and became a benefactor to his hometown after he made his fortune. After honing his business skills in Richmond, he and his partners became successful at manufacturing tin-plate. This entrepreneur became extremely wealthy after a buyout from J.P. Morgan when he formed U.S. Steel. D. G. Reid donated the Reid Memorial Presbyterian Church to this community in memory of his mother and father.
