Hello Louisa Co.! My gr-gr-grandmother was Amy WILLIS, wife of Addison REYNOLDS. Their children were Eliza Jane b.1838?; Viola b.1841?; Eli b.1844; Addison b.1848? Amy appears in the 1850 Iowa Census. She probably died that year or the next, though. Addison married again on 16 April 1852 in Louisa Co. to Elizabeth HOLIDAY, widow of William Holiday. (The spelling may be HOLLIDAY.) Elizabeth had three children with William: Ann b.1844?; James P. b.1847; Charles W. b.1848. Addison and Elizabeth then had these four children: Clara L. b.1854?; Isabelle b.18 July 1856; Sarah b. 1858?; Thomas O. b. after the census taken 6 July 1860. I haven't looked for county or state death records for Amy. Do they exist for that period? I have looked through cemetery records in Louisa and Muscatine Cos. without luck. Addison, Elizabeth and daughter Isabelle are buried together in Kisor-Eisele Cem. south of Muscatine (76 Twp., I think). Amy probably died in Muscatine Co., but there were Willises in Louisa Co.; I thought I'd see what I might find there -- with some kind help from others on this list. The 1850 Census gives Amy's age as 43, so she may have been born about 1807. (I wonder, though, since Addison was born in Dec. 1810; and also Amy would have been at least 30 at the time of Eliza Jane's birth. Also, the 1840 Census says that they were both "over 20 and under 30.") The 1850 Census also says that Amy was born in Pennsylvania. My grandmother did say that Amy was Pa. Dutch. When did Amy Willis Reynolds die? Where is she buried? And I'd love to know about those lost cousins, the decendants of Addison Reynolds borne by both of his wives. Thank you for reading all of this!
