Curtis Reynolds is listed here as the son of Luther and with a sister named Bernice who had a twin who died at birth. Curtis ran the Cat and Fiddle Grocery in Danville just this side of Union Street Bridge, which was a really large store. He and his wife lived in Forest Hills. I don't know if you can read the upper right after Ruth Oakes' name (from Portugal)? Grandma Emma always said the Reynolds' were blond with blue eyes until one married a girl from Portugal??

John Devin Reynolds is the 2nd son of Joseph M. Reynolds and his wife, Margaret Devin. Named for his Uncle John, and his Mother's Maiden name [Devin], he was born in 1783. He died 18 Mar 1831. His death was not an easy one. He writhed in agony from what we know today, as kidney stones, and after 9 days, finally succumbed to his exhaustion. His wife, described his agony and mortification in a letter to her daughter, Herodias in Missouri.

Because John's father, Joseph M. Reynolds had two wives, he enjoyed the company of 17 siblings. Eldest brother, Hugh is beginning his family in the same year his father produces his final heir.

Absolute documented proof, and multiple dna matches, confirm the father of Joseph M. Reynolds, and grandfather of John Devin Reynolds, is Hugh Reynolds of Lancaster, Pennsylvania and Pittsylvania County Virginia.
