General Notes: Husband - Edward Augustus Reynolds

---

He was but one year of age when his parents removed to Venango County, Pennsylvania, and at the age of fourteen years he went to Meadville, and attended the school conducted by the Rev. Johnson. In 1818 he was a clerk in the county commissioner's office, and in 1830 he was appointed prothonotary of Crawford County by Governor Wolf, and served two terms in this office. He was elected brigade inspector by the military division of Crawford County, with the rank of major, and served for a period of seven years. He was engaged in the mercantile line of business, and owned and conducted personally a dry goods store. Later he was connected with the iron industry, built and operated a furnace in Venango County, and was subsequently manager of the Eagle Furnace and a partner of the firm. Still later he established a hardware and tin store in which he was personally active. It was only a very short time prior to his death that he retired from the active personal conduct of his business affairs. For forty-six years he served as a ruling elder in the Presbyterian church, and in political matters he was also active in the interests of the Democratic party. [GPHWP, 1224]
