JONATHAN REYNOLDS, eldest child of John & Sarah? (____) Reynolds, was born say 1631.
He married by about 1656 Rebecca _____ (the inventory of the estate of Jonathan Reynolds, taken on 23 January 1673[/4?], included a list of his children with their ages on that date, the oldest of whom was 17). (In 1998 Gordon L. Remington presented evidence that Rebecca was not the daughter of Angel Huestis, as has been claimed, but rather became the second wife of Angel Huestis after the death of Jonathan Reynolds. The parentage of Rebecca remains unknown.

Gordon Remington has provided no evidence, whatsoever. He has provided no records (this would be actual documentation from that time period) to support his claim. It's merely guesswork, done a long time ago.

Jonathan Reynold's will is on file. I've seen what's left of it. It states he married Angel Husted's daughter Rachel, and until someone has absolute proof otherwise, it has to be accepted as is.

Gordon Remington made a huge mistake concerning other colonial ancestors of mine. But, I understand he didn't have access to all the records we do now. Luckily, we've located period documents to correct the errors. Unfortunately, once someone puts something on the internet, it is a slow, painstaking process to correct it.

Direct descendant of both Jonathan Reynolds and Angell Husted.
