    3. Dear List members, My great-great grandparents, Elisha Eddins Reynolds and Nancy Travelstead Reynolds lived most of their life in Simpson. I know that he died in 1922 and she in 1926. On the 1920 census, it appears that they are listed as Edward E. Reynolds (age and other particulars are correct) and Martha. Her age is not correct. She is listed as born in Germany. Also in the home is a servant named Media Carter. I am thinking that my GG grandparents were becoming infirm at the time, and that Media Carter was in the home as a caregiver. She may have provided the incorrect info to the census taker. It is interesting to note that on the 1910 census, Nancy says that she, herself, was born in Kentucky, but her parents were born in Germany. Actually, it was her GG grandparent who was born there. What I'm driving at here (boy do I get wordy) is does anyone know who this Media Carter is? There is also a Media Carter of the same age listed in Franklin County as a coo! k in a restaurant. I'm just wondering if she is related in anyway. Thanks for thoughts on this. Margaret Reynolds Oliver
