John Reynolds (John) b. 1745, killed in an Indian massacre March 1779. He had sold his property in Maryland and was moving with his family to Kentucky, when they were attacked on the Ohio River, about fifty miles below Wheeling, WV. His wife and children were taken captive by the Indians. On October 8, 1764 he married Miss Margaret Smith and their children were born in Washington Co., MD, to which his wife and children returned permanently after their captivity among the Indians. His official military record in the Revolution reads: Captain of the First MD Battalion of the "Flying Camp" from June to December 1776.
