John W. Reynolds was the son of Archelus W. and Sallie (Sarah) Reynolds. He was born in Buncombe County, N.C. but moved with his parents to Pickens District, S.C. before 1820.
At the age of 16 he reportedly could not get along with his stepmother and moved to Hall County Georgia to work for his Uncle Bartemus Reynolds. After a while, he worked for Wiley Allen Harrington and fell in love with his young daughter, Frances, known as "Frankie" Harrington.
They married on July 31,1834.
At first they lived on a farm on Yellow Creek. When the General Bates Farm was sold at the settlement of that estate, John and Frances purchased this beautiful tract of land on the Chattahoochee River at the shoals across from the Alum Rock, a pioneer landmark. This was in the 1840's. Here the Reynolds children grew up, and the original land is partially covered by Lake Lanier. The children of this union:
Rachel A. Reynolds Cagle, Mary Frances Reynolds Moss, Margaret Reynolds Suddeth Henson, Wyley Allen Reynolds, Abel Archelus Reynolds, Sarah A. Reynolds Chipman and John Ervin Reynolds.
