The California death index says Jacob B. Reid died 22 Feb 1920 in Sonoma Co., California at age 86.

I found an obituary for Estelle Kemp in the Oakland Tribune.  It mentions her late husband, son Gordon, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren.  No mention of siblings one way or another.  Internment at Odd Fellows Cemetery in Santa Rosa.

I also found an article from 1946 about Gordon Kemp, his wife, and 3 young children being in a house fire, but all survived.  The article has pictures of the children.  A later article said that Gordon accused his wife of starting the fire and trying to murder him.  This - http://www.newspapers.com/newspage/57412183/ - says "Gordon Kemp, Oakland real estate man who once accused his wife of attempted murder, settled for a divorce."

The Gary Gordon Kemp mentioned in these newspaper articles - http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=39386269 - appears to be a son of Gordon.
