to me

Hello again, I appreciate your entering my data. Did I meet you at a reunion this spring, I go whenever I can. It was close to Altavista. My Great Aunt, Bettyann Petty usually calls me. Here is what I have on Barton Thomas.

Most of this comes from an article in The Charlotte Gazette, Drakes Branch, Va. dated 9 sep 2010.

He had 3 siblings, John S. born 13 jun 1839, William Harrison born 25 aug 1840, and Henry C. born 22 mar 1846. Barton and John joined the Confederate Army on the same day, 29 jun 1861, at Rorrers Va. (Mt. Rogers). Barton was assigned as a private to company E. 57th regiment, Virginia Infantry.He was wounded on 29 aug 1863 at Manassas. On 13 may 1864 he was admitted to the Wayside General Hospital #9 at Richmond. He was to return to duty on 4 jun 1864 but instead he was sent to Chimborazo Hospital #5 and on 19 jun 1864 he was srent home for 60 days with a fractured right forearm. On 10 sep 1864 he was listed as being wounded again and on 25 sep. he was again sent to Chimborazo Hospital #5. His regiment was listed as being at Farmville Va. on 8 apr 1865 and he was mustered out on 9 apr 1865. It is doubtfull that they made it to Appomattox so they were probably some where between when they were mustered out.

As far as I can tell he and Cordelia had 11 children. They were married on 29 sep 1863 in Pittsylvania Co.

Sarah Elizabeth, 1865-1926. James Sidney, 1866-1948. William Thomas,1867-1945. Rovanna, 1871-. Addie L.,1873-1953. Lula Belle, 1875- . Ida Snowie, 1876- . Walter Coren, 1877-1949. George Leon, 1879- . Suenette, 1885- . Tony Barton. I have some interesting stories about James Sidney and my Grandfather Sidney Vivian but will have to send them later. Hope this helps. Doug.

Notes:

William Garrett Reynolds was a farmer, and a Baptist. He was a member of the Home Guards during the Civil War. He lived in Both Pittsylvania and Henry Counties, Virginia. His last place of residence was near Climax, Virginia.

William Garrett Reynolds was named for his maternal grandmother, Ann Garrett, mother of Sarah Ann Philpott.

William Garrett Reynolds published his last will and testament January 9, 1868 and died 19 days later.

William Garrett and his wife and children were charter members of Greenpond Baptist Church. It is said that they gave the wood for the first little church building. Their love for our Lord and service to Him are a treasured heritage.

Men of the community or adjoining communities would contest with each other in the skill of riding a horse at full tilt down a track and by means of a long lance, pick off rings suspended from poles by putting the lance through the rings. It was at such a meet that Johnson first met Mary Brumfield, who won his heart.

Notes:

Oaths of Allegiance 1777 Pittsylvania County, Virginia
NOTE: Hugh Reynolds and his son Joseph are found on this 1777 list. Hugh's son William, is not. Joseph's Baptism of 15 Aug 1759 gives us his age. If William is the younger son, he may not have been of 'age' at this time. I suspect 16, may have been the age for boys to give their OATH. If so, we may suppose that William, s/o Hugh did not become of 'age' in 1777. William is shown on court records in 1788 when he inherits the land of his grandfather, William Neeley. Both Joseph and William are Qualified as Executors (Book 6/170 Pittsylvania Co., Virginia Court Records 1787-91)
Another record dated 22 Mar 1796 for William Reynolds and Charles Lewis must be our William, as the other William Reynolds of Culpepper has died in 1791. No connecton has been documented for William of Culpepper having any connection to the Hugh Reynolds family. -Mary Frances Reynolds

Name:
Joseph Reynolds is identified as Joseph M. Reynolds on a pay document from the Revolutionary War. We speculate that his middle name is Middleton.
William Nealy left all the rest of his estate to Joseph who is probably the older brother of William Reynolds who inherited William Nealey's land.

Joseph married Margaret Devin on 21 Aug 1780 in Pittsylvania County, Virginia U.S.A.. Margaret (daughter of William Devin, Sr. and Sarah Smith) was born about 1759; died about 1798 in Pittsylvania County, Virginia U.S.A.; was buried in Pittsylvania County, Virginia U.S.A.. [Group Sheet]
