  	E-Mail from Sandra June Reynolds Apri 2014 Hey girl, I can't get off this site of yours , love it. I found where I made a major screw up. I sent you a e-mail about James Fletcher Reynolds that said he is buried at Highland Burial Park. (WRONG) I got him and Joseph Cephus (Ceph) Reynolds mixed up. Ceph is buried at Highland. I went over and saw that stone a few weeks ago. All his information is correct. I also said that James Fletcher was a High Constable (WRONG) Again that was (Ceph) and this is what he was called not Joe. Fletcher only lived to be 33 years old and it is believed that he is buried in the Matthew Clay Wells cemetery since his parents are buried there. His wife is probably buried there too. She died a year after him.
