    • William of Culpepper lived in Culpepper County, Virginia before he settled in Pittsylvania. Evidence of this fact is found in his son's Pension Application (see documents).

    • Several deeds located for Culpeper Co., Virginia for this time period name other Reynolds (Runnolds) etc. DB E 1765-69 Page 564-66 shows a John Reynolds on a tract commonly called Mountponey. I googled Mount Poney and found it located in Culpeper Co and and taken off from a church called Mountain Run, in Orange County, Mountpony Church in was constituted in 1768... . It appears that John Reynolds was now living on tht land in 1768...

      For Edgar Clatterbuck
      Son of Richard Payne Clatterbuck and Nannie Jane Holt.
      Note: This came to me several years ago, I believe from my grandfather's papers. It is mostly accurate, although I have made a few notes where is is incorrect. I found it particularly interesting coming from a family member. I am not a Reynolds, but they intermarried freely with the Clatterbucks, as you will see. -Cathy

      In 1785 John Reynolds who is my great great grandfather was living in Halifax County, Virginia. He had two sons, James and William. Tradition in the family says he came to Halifax Co, Virginia from Culpepper Co, VA. We are said to be of Scotch-Irish extraction. The heavy emigration of Scotch-Irish to America went largely to Pennsylvania and Maryland and thence spread southward through Virginia into the Carolinas and even Georgia. The John Reynolds above (I don?t know date of his birth or death, was living from 1785 to 1804(?) in Halifax Co, VA.) Tradition say he was from Culpepper Co, VA and that his father was named John. Beginning with the John at top of the page who was probably born about 1745-1755 the line runs as follows.
      John Reynolds of Halifax Co, Virginia and wife had two children;
      James Reynolds born March 9th, 1777 and died November 8th 1851. He left Va. And went to Tennessee, from Tennessee emigrated to Missouri near St. Joseph in 18?and raised a large family with descendants scattered over Northwest Missouri. He was a soldier in the war of 1812.
      William Reynolds son of the above John, was born October 1, 1781, and died June 6, 1837. He married Lucy E. Holt, daughter of Timothy Holt, in Halifax CO, VA. December 20, 1801. I found the record of this marriage in Houston (Old Halifax Court House) when I was there in 1912.
      Their children were:
      John Reynolds who married Viney Newman born December 31, 1804 and died in March 1881. They were my grandparents.
      Martha Reynolds born June 30, 1806, died June 1, 1831 married Joe K. Reynolds (my note: this is incorrect, it should be John Clatterbuck)
      Fannie (Francis) (My note: This should be Lucy Reynolds) who married James Holt, her 1st cousin.
      Their children were: Timothy Holt and 2 girls (next sentence was crossed out) one married Waller Clatterbuck (Francis) and one married a Nevins. There were others.
      Children of William Reynolds and his wife Lucy continued

      Annie Reynolds born March 23, 1813, died June 21, 1872, married Richard Clatterbuck-these are of course your grandfather and grandmother.

      Bedford Reynolds born May 4, 1809, died April 11, 1891. He married Elizabeth Holt and lived near Holts Summit and had a large family.
      There seems to have been two other children, Elizabeth and Anna who probably died in infancy.

      This family, (William and Lucy Reynolds) moved from Virginia to Callaway CO, Mo, in 1828 and lived about 2 to 3 miles north of Holts Summit on the old Paris road that passes by Prospect Church. They are buried in the Old Prospect Church graveyard.

      In 1785 Pittsylvania was already formed from Halifax. Unless John moved from his father's home in Pittsylvania, this John Reynolds is not proved, the John Reynolds who is the s/o Martha Cole.

      Hi Mary: I has been awhile since writing to you.
      You have listed John 1748 as son of William Reynolds 1722-1791. I believe this is correct. However, I think the Clatterback connection belongs to John Reynolds, son of John 1695-1784 and a brother to William.1722-1791.
      Our DNA line connects to the Reynolds in that area. We have John Reynolds b abt 1753-1758 VA d 1809 in Knox, KY. My DNA Family Finder makes a connection to Anna Davis Reynolds, sister of John.
      My line goes from my mother Jennie Louella Reynolds, Daniel Boone 1879, Daniel 1833, Clayburn 1795, Daniel 1780, John 1753-1758.
      John's children were William 1779-1833, Daniel 1780-1864, Tarlton 1785-1872, George 1783-1874. John 1790.

      Also, I reviewing Jennet Long wife of John Reynolds, I see you have mentioned her in the will of father John Long. Do you have any other records pertaining to John or his parents? Is Ware Long the brother of Jennet? I researched Ware Long and could not make a connection.
