Obituary for Mrs. Hortense Reynolds: Funeral services for Mrs. Hortense Reynolds, who died yesterday at the home of a daughter Mrs. George Owen Rogers on the Spurr Pike, will be held at 2 p.m. Friday at Kerr Brother Funeral Home. Dr. J. Archer Gray, pastor of Everybody's Church will officiate and burial will be in the Lexington Cemetery. Mrs. Reynolds 82 was a daughter of the late Isaac and Rachel Lee Friley of Roanoke, Virginia. Survivors include two other daughters Mrs. Amanda Triplett, Seattle Washington, Mrs. Audrey Potter, Whitesburg; five sons, Luther Baker, Whitesburg, Irvin and Elijah Baker both of Keene, Virginia, James M. Reynolds Detroit, Michigan and Coleman Raynolds, Fairbanks, Alaska and 18 grand children.
Our family is nearly certain this is most likely Hortense's mother Rachel living in the 1850 Census with Hortense's grandparents being Martin and Fanny (Cook?)Lee. Hortense gave the name Jim Turner as the name of her real father and said Isaac Friley was the father whom raised her. She and her mother could not read or write so we have various spellings of the names.Still working on the pre 1880 history for Hortense. comments extremely welcome!
