    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...

    July the Three and Twentieth, 1652, Yorke in Virginia. "For the sume of 60 pds sterl. my plantation on South of Potomac River 1050 acres by patent 18 Oct., 1650", Wm Gooch sells to Mr Richard Cole. Witnesses: Wm Durand, Thomas Durand (his mark). Ack. by Mr Wm Gooch 23 Aug, 1652.

    It is likely that these Coles in Augusta Co. are related to the York Co. Coles of the 1650's.

    Individuals surrounding the hh of John Cole, father of Martha Reynolds are a family of Morgans. John Morgan is named as son-in-law, along with William Reynolds, whose wife is Martha Cole. William Green, John Green and Wm. W. Morgan, and Charles Mogrgan signed Witnesses to this will which was proved 17 Mar 1757 in Culpepper.
