Aunt Helen's genealogy lists Wait Reynolds (Wait Reynolds Loveless's grandfather) as having been born in Alburgh, Vt. His father (again from Aunt Helen) was named John Reynolds.
There is a will for a John Reynolds described on the Web here. Could it be the right one? The names are right: wife Lucy, sons Wait and Elisha, for instance. I suppose this merits some further investigation.
Wow! Here is a listing for what may be John's father's (Elisha's) will!
In case these pages go down, here is contact information for David J. Ellis, the page's creator: [dr.ellis@physics.org]. The original information appears in The Books of Record for the Town of Alburg, FHL US/CAN 27771, Book 12, pp. 357-360 (for John's will) and Book 7, pp. 198-201 (for Elisha's will).

I know of the grave site of Elisha Reynolds and the cemetary. I grew up in Alburgh on the Reynolds property. Elisha was the oldest of my decendents I was told. I have the geneology from the front of a family bible. I have started looking for Elisha's line in Rhode Island and Europe. Thanks for the information about the wills.
