    1. [Ess] REYNOLDS headstones Great Sampford
    2. Simon
    3. Hi all there is a line of Reynolds graves to the south of the church in St Michael's churchyard, Great Sampford. Three of them have headstones. I recently photographed them in what was a good light and transcribed them. The first is to James Reynolds (1761-92): http://www.flickr.com/photos/norfolkodyssey/6076600894 The second is to Susanna Reynolds (1783-1823) and her son Thomas Reynolds (1809-21): http://www.flickr.com/photos/norfolkodyssey/6076064889 The third is to Thomas Reynolds (1782-1849): http://www.flickr.com/photos/norfolkodyssey/6076602734 From looking at baptismal records (Great Sampford PRs now being on line) I think the following is correct. James (headstone 1) was the younger brother of my 5g-grandfather Thomas Reynolds. Thomas (headstone 3) was the eldest son of that 5g-grandfather Thomas Reynolds, and the elder brother of my 4g-grandfather Edmund Reynolds. Susanna (headstone 2) was the wife of Thomas Reynolds on headstone 3, and the Thomas Reynolds on headstone 2 was their son. Susanna was Susanna Thurgood of Great Sampford, and they married on 5th August 1806. Please feel free to take copies of these images for your records. Hopefully this will be of use or interest to someone! Simon norfolkchurches.co.uk suffolkchurches.co.uk
