Soon after, Jonathan Ellison purchased {{convert|1400|acre|ha|abbr=on}} of land from Pettus at an auction held in 1846, and it went to Ellison's children after he died in 1878. His daughter, Margaret Elizabeth Ellison, married Major A. Reed, a Confederate cavalryman. The Missouri, Kansas, and Texas railroad laid tracks through his farm and the community became a shipping port for cotton in 1887. A post office was established at Reedville in 1890, and remained in operation until 1918. A cornmill, gin, and general store were located in the settlement in 1896, and it had a population of 100. In the late 1940s, there were only two buildings and several scattered buildings in the community. There was a gin, a community hall, a few homes, two mobile home parks, and a cemetery in Reedville in the 1990s. The cemetery was maintained by a church in nearby Martindale called the Immaculate Heart of Mary Catholic Church.[2] GeographyReedville is located on Farm to Market Road 1984, {{convert|10|mi|km|abbr=on}} west of Lockhart in the extreme western part of Caldwell County.[2] EducationIn 1905, Reedville had two schools that had a combined total of three teachers and 102 students. They then joined with the San Marcos Consolidated Independent School District (CISD) in neighboring Hays County in 1949.[2] The community is still served by the San Marcos Consolidated Independent School District.{{citation needed|date=January 2018}} References1. ^1 {{GNIS|1345006}} {{Caldwell County, Texas}}2. ^1 2 {{Handbook of Texas|id=hrr15 |name=Reedville, TX}} 2 : Unincorporated communities in Caldwell County, Texas|Unincorporated communities in Texas |
