My journey at the Bailey Reed house started the day that I was born. It was the home of my great-grandparents Aaron and Linda Reed. Although I never lived in Manasquan, when I was a young child, we spent every weekend with my grandparents who lived in Brielle. That always included a trip to see my great grandparents. In 2018, I became a trustee at the museum. It was my grandfather, Ernest who grew up in this house. It was his hope that the house could be a place where historical information from Manasquan could be preserved for generations to come.
