      Note: Dates copied from records of Alvah and Marcus Reynolds. Quoting the authors of The History and Descendants of John and Sarah Reynolds?: "It seems very strange that Daniel, b. about 1714, should have m., as is said, about 1737 and have ch. only 1768. Perhaps a generation left out between him and Joshua?"
      c. Caleb Reynolds: See generation 6, below.
      d. Mary Reynolds: (121) Born 28 April 1723.
