William Reynolds was an Architect, he worked with Backhouse. They designed Geelong Grammars City building and planned Flinders National Grammar. He resided in Moorabool Street on 1856/57 Electoral roll. He was born 1827 in Birmingham. A daughter Catherine Edith was born in Geelong August 1859. I would like to contact anyone interested in this family. Rosemary Lyle British Columbia

Dear Jennifer, Thank you so much for that information, I can add it to his name. William Reynolds was my Great Grandfather. Could you tell me where you obtained the information ? I wondered if there might be some archival photos of him still in existence.
