One of the blood lines of my great-grandmother Etta Double Sowers that has been difficult to trace was the ancestry of Mary Emily Mitchell wife of John W. Sowers. Her mother Matilda Johnston's mother was Frances Reynolds. I have been able to document her male line back three generation. I am not sure if last Reynolds is the emigrate or not.

1. Jeffery Reynolds born 1675 lived in Richmond Co. VA, will filed in 1721 in Richmond Co. VA. Wife named Ann at the time of his death. Named three children, I descend from only son.

2. John Reynolds born c1700, d. 1761 Richmond Co. VA, will filed named his wife Ann and his son George.

3. George Reynolds born 1735 Richmond Co. VA m. 12 Feb 1759 Richmond Co. VA to Frances Barber, his will filed in Richmond Co. VA 4 May 1778. His will named his several children, they removed to Frederick Co. VA. My line from their daughter.

4. Frances Reynolds b. c1768 Richmond Co. VA m. 28 Jan 1789 Frederick/Clarke Co. VA. to Wm. Johnston. Died about 1833 in Frederick Co. VA. Their daughter

5. Matilda Johnston b. 1792 Frederick Co. VA m. Wm. Mitchell, d. c1860 Clarke Co. VA.

There were other Reynolds (various spelling) living in Frederick Co. VA. Some it would appear came down from PA/MD into Frederick Co. VA. I will not be collecting information on those groups of Reynolds.

The Barber part of the ancestry of Frances Reynolds, her mother Frances Barber's male line back to Wm. Barber, not sure is emigrate or not. She also has Glascock ancestry and I am sure I know the emigrate for that surname. She is also a descend of Thomas & Anne Nash, not sure is the emigrate or not.

Found Ancestry DNA Project researcher "Jub12k14" descend of Thomas Glascock (1671-1726) m. Sarah Stone their daughter Sarah Glascock (1712-1765 NC) m. Charnel Hightower. She does not parentage on her DNA samples.

Other Ancestry Tree and documentation have the emigrate Thomas Glascock with wife Jane Juet had son named Gregory Glascock who married Mary Fauntleroy their son above Thomas.

I descend from the emigrate other son Thomas who married Ann Nichols. This blood line part of the ancestry of Frances Reynolds who married Wm. Johnston of Frederick Co. VA. Their daughter Matilda Johnston married Wm. Mitchell who daughter Mary Emily Mitchell married John W. Sowers.

Found on Ancestry DNA site sample given by "dawn12intexas" line of Faner Glascock born 1780 Rowan Co. NC died Edgar IL married Ledstone Redmon (1778-1856) She has to go back about 105 years or 3 to 4 generation to reach my oldest known Glascock ancestry.

My Frances Glascock did have one brother George Glascock born 1675 died 1714 married to Million Dowman.
