    Notes:

    Nancy B. Reynolds, the eight child and fourth daughter to Henry Reynolds and Mary Brown was
    born on October 12, 1840 in Bedford county, Tennessee.
    Nancy married Albert Gallatin Brown in Jackson County, Alabama on December 26th, 1866.
    Albert, the son of John A. Brown, was born on April 27, 1842 in Jackson County, Alabama.
    Nancy and Albert had, I believe, six children:
    John H. "Doc" Brown born in 1867 in Alabama;
    David Lee Brown born in December 1869 in Alabama and made his home in Maud, Texas;
    A. G. "Gus" Brown, born in 1972;
    Arthur Gallatin "Art"
    Brown; Jess G. Brown, born in Titus County on December 3, 1876, married a lady by the
    name of Lizzie E., and died on June 30, 1958; and
    Willey Brown who was born on November 15, 1877 and died on August 13 1878. Willey is
    buried near his parents in the Concord Cemetery, located in Morris county, Texas.
    Their son, David Lee, married Frances Taylor and had seven known children: Andrew A.
    "Andy" Brown, who was born on March 30, 1895 in Maud, Texas. Andy married Ollie May
    Spivey on December 21, 1926 in Nocona, Montague County, Texas. Ollie was born in 1905 in
    Montague County. Andy and Ollie had at least one daughter, Melba who married a Ragan prior
    to Andy's death in Nocona on 20 October 1980 and Ollie May's on 12 December 1987. Both
    Andy and Ollie are buried in the Nocona Cemetery; David Lee and Frances Taylor's next had a
    daughter Margie who married a Barrington and lived in Throckmorton; Jo Nell who married a
    Satterfield and lived in Hereford; Allene who married a McDonald and lived in Maud; a son
    Charlie who lived Dallas, Clyde who lived in Maud; and Stanley who lived in El Paso.
    Nancy B. and Albert G.'s next son was Arthur Gallatin Brown who married Flora Syble
    Reynolds the daughter of Arthur Campbell Reynolds. More information about Albert Gallatin
    can be found under Flora Syble Reynolds.
    Nancy B. died in Titus County on July 28, 1878 and is buried in the Concord Cemetery in Morris
    County, Texas. Albert G. Brown went on to marry two other women, the latter being Nancy
    Caroline Brown who was the Niece of Nancy B. Reynolds.
    Albert Gallatin Brown died on April 3, 1909 and is also buried in the Concord Cemetery next to
    his wife and son Willey.
    Hazel Johansen Chambless, the Great Grand-daughter of Nancy B. Reynolds and Albert Gallatin
    Brown has the following that she wrote me about her Great Grandparents:
    Albert Gallatin Brown was born on April 27, 1842, in Jackson county, Alabama, the fifth child of
    the John A. Brown family of North Carolina. He spent his young years in Northern Alabama, but
    when the Civil War broke out, be became a Confederate Volunteer and served several years in
    Co. E of the 55th Alabama Infantry Regiment under Col. John Snodgrass in Buford's Brigade
    and Loring's Division, Gen. Polk's Corps of Gen. Joe Johnston's Army. Another time he wore the
    gray uniform in Co. B of the 27th Alabama Regiment. According to military records, he was
    recognized as a faithful and gallant soldier and fought in several major battles including the
    famous one at Peach Tree Creek near Atlanta, Georgia, where he was wounded on July 20,
    1864. He served until the South's surrender, and he was honorably discharged.
    Back home in Alabama he took as his bride, Nancy B. Reynolds, the eighth child of Henry and
    Mary (Brown) Reynolds and the granddaughter of William and Jane (Milliken) Reynolds of
    Tennessee and Virginia. Nancy was born in Bedford County, Tennessee, on October 12, 1840,
    and had moved with her family to Jackson County, Alabama. She and Albert were married on
    December 26, 1866. Their first child, John H. (Doc) Brown, was born in 1867. Another son,
    David Lee, followed in 1869. About this time the family pulled up stakes and moved to Titus
    County, Texas, where four more sons were born to the couple. First came A. G. (Gus) in 1872,
    followed by Arthur Gallatin (Art) in 1874, Jess G. in 1876, and Willey in 1877. Unfortunately,
    Willey lived less than one year, dying on August 13, 1878, outliving his mother less than a
    month. Nancy B. (Reynolds) Brown died on July 28, 1878, leaving five sons that survived to
    manhood.
    Census records reveal that Albert had remarried and was still living in Titus County in 1880, but
    nothing more about this marriage has been discovered. By 1881 Albert had returned to
    Alabama and had married Nancy C. Reynolds on August 10 of that year. Nancy C., born October
    2, 1861, was the daughter of John and Phoebe (Storey) Reynolds and was the niece of Albert's
    first wife. The couple returned to Titus county, Texas and lived there until Albert's death on April
    8, 1909. He and his first wife, Nancy B., are buried in the Concord Baptist Church Cemetery, a
    Texas Memorial Landmark, in Morris county, as well as their sons Willey; Jess and his wife,
    Elizabeth E. (?); Gus and his wife, Lecie Bell (Davis); David Lee and his wife, Fannie (Taylor),
    and many of all their family members. The stones in the Concord Cemetery are good testimonials
    not only to the Brown-Reynolds families who came to Texas in the latter part of the nineteenth
    century but also to other families who migrated from northern Alabama about the same time.
    However, two sons and their families are not buried there. The oldest son, John H. and his wife,
    Tempie (Johnson), as well as Albert's third wife, Nancy C., are buried in the Cookville, Texas
    cemetery. The third son of the family, Arthur G. and his wife, Flora (Reynolds) are buried in the
    Nocona, Texas Cemetery. Truly, the Brown-Reynolds families have been doubly interlinked for
    many, many years.

    Nancy B. Reynolds, the eight child and fourth daughter to Henry Reynolds and Mary Brown was
    born on October 12, 1840 in Bedford county, Tennessee.
    Nancy married Albert Gallatin Brown in Jackson County, Alabama on December 26th, 1866.

    A. G. "Gus" Brown, born in 1972;
    Arthur Gallatin "Art"
    Brown; Jess G. Brown, born in Titus County on December 3, 1876, married a lady by the
    name of Lizzie E., and died on June 30, 1958; and
    Willey Brown who was born on November 15, 1877 and died on August 13 1878. Willey is
    buried near his parents in the Concord Cemetery, located in Morris county, Texas.
    Their son, David Lee, married Frances Taylor and had seven known children: Andrew A.
    "Andy" Brown, who was born on March 30, 1895 in Maud, Texas. Andy married Ollie May
    Spivey on December 21, 1926 in Nocona, Montague County, Texas. Ollie was born in 1905 in
    Montague County. Andy and Ollie had at least one daughter, Melba who married a Ragan prior
    to Andy's death in Nocona on 20 October 1980 and Ollie May's on 12 December 1987. Both
    Andy and Ollie are buried in the Nocona Cemetery; David Lee and Frances Taylor's next had a

    Satterfield and lived in Hereford; Allene who married a McDonald and lived in Maud; a son
    Charlie who lived Dallas, Clyde who lived in Maud; and Stanley who lived in El Paso.
    Nancy B. and Albert G.'s next son was Arthur Gallatin Brown who married Flora Syble
    Reynolds the daughter of Arthur Campbell Reynolds. More information about Albert Gallatin
    can be found under Flora Syble Reynolds.
    Nancy B. died in Titus County on July 28, 1878 and is buried in the Concord Cemetery in Morris
    County, Texas. Albert G. Brown went on to marry two other women, the latter being Nancy
