  [S243] THE REYNOLDS FAMILY, J. Montgomery Seaver, (American Historical Genealogical Society), Lineage of Reverend John Reynolds English Clergyman. Samuel Reynolds b. 1674; d. 1745; m. Abigail Middleton, Haverhill, Mass. Samuel is the Father of Stephen b 14 May 1703, Bradford, Mass m. Ester Hovey Rowley; d 19 Mar 1753. Samuel is also the Father of George Reynolds. Stephen's son is Daniel Reynolds b. 15 Sep 1742; m. Hannah Spofford, 14 Apr 1767; d. 13 Dec 1795. [S100] Internet Source, https://archive.org/stream/agenealogyrunne00runngoog/agenealogyrunne00runngoog_djvu.txt. Stephen2 (Samuel^), m. Esther Hovey, of Rowley, 1723, and was admitted to full communion with the Congregational Church in Bradford, as "Stephen son of Samuel," "Aug. 8, 1729." He lived in B. and there acquired some property as " a cooper," till "Jan. 14, 1735-6," under which date Zechariah Hardy deeded to him, " for £1 40 a piece of land in Boxford, which was formerly Nathaniel Hardy's." This marks the probable time of his settling in Boxford as a farmer, and about the same time he first appears among the tax-payers of that town. From the Essex Probate Records: " Inventory of Stephen Runnels, late of Boxford, yeoman, deceased, intestate, prized, Apr. 12, 1753, and witnessed by Esther Runnels his widow"; who also " rendered account, as administratrix of her husband's estate. Mar. 24, 1755." His estate, however, seems never to have been fully settled till after his son Stephen's death; as "Sept. 3, 1771, a Committee was appointed, by Nathaniel Ropes, Judge of Probate, to divide and set off, both for quantity and quality, one third part of all the real estate of Stephen Runnels unto his widow^ Esther Runnell, now Hovey^ as her right of dower in said real estate, to and for her use and improvement during her natural life." According to the Boxford Records, she had m., 2d, Luke Hovey, of Boxford, " published Mar 16, 1755," thus regaining her maiden name. He did not come in possession of a part of his father's house in Bradford, as by terms of the will, his own death preceding that of his mother by some months, " Mar. 10, 1753," aged 50.
