News: Looking for females who are in the pure female lines (mother to daughter) from William and Sarah who are willing to do an mtDNA test. Such a person would be descended along an all female line from Mary DEVIN Biggers or Margaret DEVIN Reynolds. The hope is to identify the markers for Sarah SMITH Devin to help identify her parents. Contact the webmaster if interested.

      Notes 
      • I have another story for you. The day John Henry Reynolds, his wife Sally Frances Wells Reynolds and children, Charlie Wade, Mary Ann, Tabitha, Bogie, Silas and Callie were moving from the cabin on John Henry's dads place(Allen Gilmer Reynolds) there wasn't a bridge across Turkeycock creek so they had to lead the horse and wagon across. Mary Ann, the oldest girl was carrying the baby, Callie. She dropped her in the creek. Of course they grabbed her up and got her across. But I heard Aunt Mary Ann and Aunt Callie laughing and talking about it when they were old. Their Dad had bought a farm on Rd. 57 on the left just across the road from the CLCC parsonage (County Line Christian Church). When John Henry died the place had to be sold to pay off debts. Charlie moved the whole family across the road to Swanson place where they share cropped for about 18 years, I think. Then they moved to his Uncle Charlie Well's place in about 1936 and share cropped there until 1946 when he bought Grady store.
