Bessie Reynolds
b 11 Feb 1911 d 13 Oct 1911Knott
Co KY. She was 8 months of age. Earl and Helen Reynolds sent me a picture of
Little Bessie Reynolds in her casket. In those days (perhaps these days as
well) families had funeral viewings in their homes. (When I was a small
girl, our Father's viewing was at our home).
Noah's book Mountain Feuds
gives a detailed history of the feud between the
Wrights (Lunce) family and
Noah, his brother John Reynolds and Creed Potter
b 1882, s/o Abraham Potter
and Sarah Sallie Wright.
Noah's home was in Seco, KY. He traveled 3 miles on school days to Neon,
Kentucky to attend school. Noah was the oldest among his siblings and had to
look after the home affairs. For this reason, he writes that he failed to
get the education his brother, John received. Noah's brother John Reynolds
was a school teacher.
Noah wrote about his parents in this way, "I want the reader to know and
understand we were raised and instructed by as good parents as ever lived in
the State of Kentucky, or elsewhere. We were taught to do unto all men as we
would they do unto us."
In Noah's book, "The History
of the Feuds of the Mountain Parts of Eastern Kentucky", he writes, "I,
Noah Reynolds, being the oldest boy of the family, as I have stated before,
at an early age learned the brick mason trade, working with my Uncle Ange
Reynolds. We built the first courthouse that was built at Clintwood,
Dickenson county, Virginia, I being only thirteen years old."
"At the age of seventeen, we made the brick and built the courthouse at
Hazard, Perry county, Kentucky. I also helped to build the court-house and
jail at Whitesburg, Letcher county, Kentucky, where my brother,
William H.
Reynolds, is now jailer.
I continued to lay brick, building chimneys in divers places in Eastern
Kentucky and Southwest Virginia, farming, trading some in stock, which leads
up to the time of which I am about to relate."
The entire book by Noah Reynolds is on line, courtesy of Earl and Helen
Reynolds, at This Link.
Earl Reynolds is a descendant of Noah Milburn and Maggie Sergent Reynolds.
