Frederick W. Reynolds Biography from History of Rockingham County, New Hampshire From: Barbara Gottlock - BGOTTLOC@ccsd.edu Surname: REYNOLDS Source: History of Rockingham County, New Hampshire and Representative Citizens by Charles A. Hazlett, Richmond-Arnold Publishing Co., Chicago, Ill., 1915 Page 1284 FREDERICK W. REYNOLDS,* owner and operator of a good farm in East Derry, Rockingham County, N. H., was born in 1856, a son of Stephen and Sarah (Sergeant) Reynolds. The father, born on the old Reynolds homestead in 1820, was a carpenter and farmer, and in politics a republican. His wife Sarah was a native of Candia, N. H. They were the parents of five children, only two of whom are now living, Frederick W., the subject of this sketch, and Walter. Tracing the Reynolds ancestry farther back, we find that the grandfather of our subject, on the paternal side, was also named Stephen. He was born in Derry in 1768 and was a farmer and carpenter. He died in 1848. His father was Daniel Reynolds, a Revolutionary soldier, with the rank of colonel, who served under General Stark at the Battle of Bennington. Thus we see that for at least four generations the Reynolds family has been located in this section, and its members generally have been patriotic, industrious and law-abiding citizens, useful and respected in their day and generation. Frederick W. Reynolds was reared and educated in the town of Derry, attending the common schools and Pinkerton Academy. He has made farm- ing his life business, and, inheriting the steady and industrious qualities of his ancestors, has achieved a comfortable degree of prosperity. He is a public spirited citizen, taking an interest in everything calculated to promote the development of the town in which he resides, and his aid and influence can always be counted on in behalf of any worthy cause. **************************************************************************** * * * * Notice: Printing the files within by non-commercial individuals and libraries is encouraged, as long as all notices and submitter information is included.
