Shirley, As shown here: http://usgwarchives.net/va/cumberland.htm there was an Obediah Reynolds on the 1784 Head of Families List in Cumberland Co., VA. I did not see anyone named "Reynolds" on the earlier 1768 List of Tithes, nor on the 1782 Tax Roll, for Cumberland Co., VA. There was then a Samuel Reynolds on the 1810 Cumberland Co., VA census (age 26-45), as well as an Obediah Reynolds (age over 45)....plus one other Reynolds man....all as shown here: http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~vacumber/census/cc1810.htm Bill Davidson To subscribe, change options, or unsubscribe, please see the instructions at http://listlva.lib.va.us/archives/va-roots.html
