General Notes: Husband - [Ancestor] Reyner


This has the aspect of a German name; and Fryburg, Clarion County, Pennsylvania, to which David Reyner came among the early inhabitants, was named from one of the Freiburgs in Germany, as therefrom had come a number of the settlers in the neighborhood. Yet there was a family of this name, English in origin, in Massachusetts in the seventeenth century. The name was in Maryland in the eighteenth century. On the whole, English origin seems the more probable for the present family. In Pennsylvania the name may be traced to the year 1745, as Philip Reyner re­ceived a warrantee of two hundred acres of land in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, surveyed December 18, 1745. He, or another person of the same name, was a ranger on the frontiers in North­umberland County, in the revolutionary war. [GPHAV, 580]
