Additional Comments:
This plaintiff, Philip Reynolds goes on to explain that his brother, Charles 
had qualified as administrator of their father, Jesse's estate, but now, five 
years later, there has been no division or distribution of property. The Jesse 
Reynolds, decd, is the same as Revolutionary War Veteran of pension W5683
