General Notes: Husband - Philo Reynolds

---

When ten years old he was taken by his mother to live on his grandfather Redd's farm. He attended the common schools a short time, then went to live with James Wright. At the age of sixteen he learned the blacksmith's trade of John Morrow, having lived with him four years, receiving $25 per year, and at the end of the four years had $42 coming to him. When twenty years of age he began business for himself by opening a shop near James Wright's place. He followed his trade all his life, and by dint of thrift and enterprise, accumulated a good property; in 1872 he purchased a home, as fine a farm as could be found in the township. In politics he was a Democrat, but believed in voting independently of any party or politician, when occasion so demanded. In religious connection he was first a member of the Christian Church, but later was not connected with any religious body.
