    2. [S160] Correspondence.
      My husband Robert Frederick Reynolds had done some research a very long time ago. He was an only child and his father's siblings died young before marriage and children. When he passed away 12 years ago before all the tools of the Internet were available. His tree is James, Gildeon, Ambrose, Jared, J. Sidney, William Franklin, Frederick. See chart below, hope the formatting stays correct.
