Reynolds Sources

Unless otherwise indicated, all references in the Reynolds Family documents are from original sources.  The source is noted in brackets.  The tithables lists are excepted, all of them being available in the Surry deed books.  (All of the tithables lists for Surry County 1668-1703 have also been transcribed and published in the Magazine of Virginia Genealogy.)

Some isolated references to secondary sources other than those below are noted in the text.

Several secondary sources were heavily utilized.  For these, the source is noted in brackets with the original reference followed by the words “abstracted by _____” or something similar, where the actual source is as follows:

Note that there are several gaps in the records of both Isle of Wight and Surry.  Nearly forty years of early Isle of Wight deeds are missing (1649-1688), and some wills and estate records from the late 1650s and early 1660s appear to be missing as well.  Essentially all the court records are also lost.  Early Surry County wills are also lost, apparently having been filed in James City County.  The Surry court records are missing from 1719 through late 1741.  Other gaps in the records are noted in the Chronologies if they appear to be significant.
