General Notes: Husband - [Ancestor] Reynolds


The Reynolds family is of English extraction, and the name is one of very ancient Saxon origin, in its early form a combination of two words: Rhein, meaning pure, and Hold, the Saxon for love. Arthur's Etymological Dictionary of Family Names says it signifies sincere and pure love, but may also signify strong or firm hold. The name appears as Reynold, Reynolds and Reynoldson (son of Reynolds). There are various Reynolds coats of arms and crests, that of George Reynolds, the first of this line in America, being: Azure, a chevron, ermine, between three crosses, crosslet, fitched argent. Crest: An eagle, argent, ducally gorged and lined.
