Notes |
Joseph Welch Reynolds was named for his mother's brother, Joseph Carter, Jr. who died the year he was born; and the Welch name came from Mr. Welch Clark who was the protector of Samuel Lovelace Reynolds after the death of his mother Mary Lou (Molly) Reynolds when Sam was 15 years old. Mr. Welch Clark lived in a historic house on Main Street, Danville, VA and was a well know bachelor who traveled widely and is remembered by even distant family members and community members as having brought back from a trip to Florida, an alligator for a pet. Mary Frances Reynolds Eggleston, the daughter of Sam Reynolds and the sister of Joseph Welch Reynolds submits the photograph of Mr. Welch Clark and his alligator from circa. 1918-1921.
Joseph Welch Reynolds, brother of Mary Frances Reynolds Eggleston contracted polio when he was 13 years old. Unlike many victims, he recovered almost completely and was left with only a weakness in his left leg ultimately until his death. Mary Frances Reynolds Eggleston submits the newspaper clippings of the reports of his hospital stay and progress of his recovery.
