      Birth: 1774
      Death: 1839

      David Reynolds was an Associate Judge of the Mifflin County courts. He was born in Cecil County, Maryland and was the youngest of six sons of Benjamin Reynolds. He was married twice..1st wife was the daughter of Col. Purdy. 2nd wife Eleanor Moore.

      From the 1886 book "History of the Susquehanna & Juniata Valleys" - pages 527 & 528

      David Reynolds, who was an associate judge of the Mifflin County Courts for several years, was born in 1774 in Cecil County, Maryland, being the son of Benjamin Reynolds, a Quaker, whose ancestor of the same family name was a preacher of the Society of Friends, who, in 1682, came with William Penn to Pennsylvania, but soon afterwards settled in Maryland.

      David was the youngest of the 6 sons of Benjamin Reynolds, the others being named, respectively, Isaac, Levi, Jesse, Stephen, and John. After the death of Benjamin Reynolds, their mother married a Mr. Bryson and both remained in Cecil County until their death. John Reynolds also lived and died in Maryland, but all the other sons of Benjamin removed to the Juniata Valley about the close of the last century, and settled in Mifflin County. Jesse and Stephen became farmers in that part of Mifflin which was afterwards taken to form the county of Juniata, and there they lived and died. Isaac emigrated from Mifflin County to the West, and became a resident of the State of Indiana, where he died. He had one son, Major Levi Reynolds, who, in his boyhood, had been reared by his uncle, Judge David Reynolds, and who afterwards was a resident of Chester, Pa.

      Judge David Reynolds was first married to a daughter of Colonel Purdy of Mifflin County. Their children were John Purdy Reynolds, who was killed at the massacre of the Alamo, in the Texas Revolution of 1836; Benjamin Bryson Reynolds, who settled in La Salle County, Ill., but died in Texas; and Mary Job Reynolds, who became the wife of John Christy, a farmer of Juniata County. The mother of these children died at Lewistown. The 2nd wife of Judge Reynolds was Eleanor, daughter of John Moore of Cumberland County, to whom he was married in 1813. She died in 1849, leaving an only child, Eleanor Moore Reynolds, born in 1815, and married, in October, 1839, to Dr. John C. Reynolds.
