Notes

GEORGE REYNOLDS OF ENGLAND http://www.reynoldsfamily.org/line17/chris_4.html

T1-2 GEORGE REYNOLDS, son of Christopher (1) Reynolds, b ca 1555 in County Kent England, and d. 1634. Data from his will. He m. 1-20-85 Thomasyn Church and settled in Bristol, England, and then in London. He is shown to have visited VA several times but did not settle in the colony. Issue: Thomas, b 1590 [T1-3]; Anne; and Christopher b 1611 [T1-433].

T2-1894 George Reynolds of (1) b 1555 County Kent, England and d 1634 London, England, m 20 Jan 1585 Thomasyn Church, and settled in London, and elsewhere. Data partially from his will. His children settled VA and the now New England states. Issue: Thomas [T2-5571] and John (twins) b 1590 [T2-2491]; Robert b 1586 [T2-1895]; Anne; Christopher b 1611 [T2-6292]; and several others.

There is a marriage record for a George Reynolds who m. Thomasyn Church 20 Jan 1585 at St. James Clerkenwell. [A True Register of all the Christenings, Mariages, and Burialles in the Parishe of St. James, Clarkenwell, from The Yeare of Our Lorde God 1551. Edited by Robert Hovenden. Vol. III, "Marriages 1551-1754". London, 1887.] There is no record of any children of this couple in St. James Clerknwell Parish.

The will of Henry Hobson of Bristol, proved 27 May 1636: ...[to]...My kinsman Christopher Reynolds, son of George Reynolds, deceased, and Anne Reynoldes, sister of the said Christopher (at twenty one or day of marriage)... . [Henry F. Waters, A.M., Genealogical Gleanings in England, 2 Vols. Balto: Genealogical Publications Co, 1969 (reprint edition).] Although this Christopher and Anne are children of a George, there is no evidence that they are the Christopher and George of interest in this article.

While the possibility exists, until more clear and convincing evidence becomes available, RFA cannot accept Christopher born 1530 and George who married Thomasyn Church as the parents of Christopher Reynolds of Isle of Wight VA.
