Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Reynolds Family Association: Eighth Annual Reunion
All agree that the name is an honored one. And without at this time going into its origin, or to Old England, the record shows that from the time the religious refugees of Britain crossed the seas in search of that liberty of con science denied them in their old home, down to the present, they were patriots and defenders of the New England colonies during the early days of their existence, and active participants in King Philip's War of I675-76, and in the French and Indian Wars. In the Revolutionary struggle, thirty-eight of this name were in the service of the State of Connecticut. M y own study of this family has been chiefly about John of Weymouth and of Stonington, who first appears in Weymouth in 1660, when a daughter, Mary, was born, and he had land set out in the first and second divisions of that year. In Volume IV., 276, Suffolk deeds, he conveyed this land, with dwelling house, barn, orchard and planting land, to Edwin Grant, of Boston, the deed bearing date September 8, 1664, and said grant to have possession the last day of March, I665.
