    Notes:

    Name:
    Janice Doss on Facebook 18 Mar 2014
    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??
