The Rev. Wm James Reid House is a historic frame vernacular home, located in Fort Meade, Florida and was built between 1899-1914. It was built over another structure sometime in the late 1880s, as the lot appears in an 1880s survey. The property which compromises of Orange Ave and Oak St were part of the Jack Robeson addition, which the house sits on today. One of the last two surviving carriage stones in Polk County was located in front of the home for more than 100 years. It was originally owned by Reverend William James Reid (1858–1931) and Stella C. Reid (1869–1954) from Hanceville, Alabama. Mr. Wm James Reid was a minister for the North Alabama Conference Methodist Church South. The home was later owned by his son Claude 'Cauntess' Reid (1894–1976), who lived in the house until his death in 1976. After Claude's death, the home was left in the possession of his sister Carrie B. Reid (1898–2001). The home was left vacant for many years and was then sold to the Harpe family sometime around 1985.
Woodwardville is an unincorporated community situated in western Anne Arundel County, Maryland, United States, containing 27 structures, 16 of which are historic and included in the Woodwardville Historic District, listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2003. Most of the structures are located adjacent to Patuxent Road, which runs through the center of the community. On the north end of the district, a small street, 5th Avenue, runs west from Patuxent Road underneath the train tracks. Prior to the establishment of what would be later known as Fort George G. Meade in 1917, the road once continued on to Laurel. Three of the seven buildings along 5th Avenue are historic. Woodwardville's building stock consists principally of late-19th and early-20th century domestic architecture. Good examples of the Bungalow, Foursquare, Tudor Revival, and Queen Anne styles are present, as well as older traditional vernacular classifications such as the I-house. These older forms are supplemented by a handful of post-World War II era structures. Woodwardville also features several public or commercial buildings including a church, a former schoolhouse, the ruins of a store and storage or service buildings associated with the railroad. Many of Woodwardville's older buildings fell into decline following World War II, but in recent years, due to its close proximity to commuter rail service, Woodwardville has evolved into a bedroom community for persons working in Washington and Baltimore. Investment by new residents resulted in the restoration and renovation of many buildings which had formerly been in deteriorating condition. Despite the intense development a mile away in Piney Orchard, this quaint community retains its ability to communicate its historic qualities and distinct sense of place.

Fort Meade, originally known as Camp Sturgis and later Camp Ruhlen, is a former United States Army post located just east of Sturgis, South Dakota, United States. The fort was active from 1878 to 1944; the cantonment is currently home to a Veterans Health Administration hospital and South Dakota Army National Guard training facilities. Much of the former reservation is now managed by the Bureau of Land Management as the Fort Meade Recreation Area. It is also home of Fort Meade National Cemetery. Fort Meade was established in 1878 to protect illegal white settlements on the Great Sioux Reservation in the northern Black Hills, especially the nearby gold mining area around Deadwood. Several stage and freighting routes passed through Fort Meade en route to Deadwood.
