William Reynolds, second oldest, was born December 10, 1815, in Lancaster. At the age of sixteen he was appointed a midshipman in the US Navy by a family friend, Pennsylvania Congressman, James Buchanan (who later became President). During his distinguished career in the navy he served in a number of posts, toured many parts of the world, and in 1873 was promoted to Rear Admiral. However, his career was always overshadowed by his younger brother, General John Fulton Reynolds, hero of Gettysburg, and almost as much by another brother, General James Lefevre Reynolds, Quartermaster General of Pennsylvania
William Reynolds married Rebecca Krug on August 16, 1842, in the Holy Trinity Lutheran Church in Lancaster. As his naval career took him to different parts of the world, William and Becky kept in touch with family by letter. A collection of Reynolds Family Letters can be found in the Archives & Special Collections at Franklin & Marshall College (address below). Some of William's earlier letters can also be found on this website.
