For over fifty years he has been in the pulpits of the Chris-
tian church, in the New England States and New York. The keynote of his ministry has been "The Fatherhood of God and the Bro- therhood of Man."

John McKie, the first of the name MCKIE of whom we have record, was born abont 1705. in the stewardry of Galloway, probably in Wigtonshire, Scot- land, and removed from there to Ayrshire about 1767, where he resided about seven years. His sons engaged in business in Ayr, but through the dishonesty of their partners failed, their failure involving their father so that he lost his entire property. This decided him to emigrate to America, which he ac- cordingly did in 1774. settling at Ashgrove. town of Cambridge, Washington county, New York, where he died October 27, 1782. He married Marion Wilson. Children: Alexan- der, Peter (?), John, James, see forward, Mary, Elizabeth.

John Reynolds (1), pro- REYNOLDS genitor of this branch of the family, is supposed to have sailed from the port of London-i. e., Ipswich, England, in 1633. Sarah Reynolds (his wife), aged 20, was a passenger on the ship "Elizabeth," which sailed from Ipswich "bound for New England the last of April, 1634."
Among the passengers were many who set- tled at Watertown, Massachusetts, and sub- sequently removed to Weathersfield and Stam- ford, Connecticut, but John Reynolds was not among them. John Reynolds was admitted a freeman of Watertown, May 6, 1635. Robert, his brother, had been admitted September 3, 1634.
Sir Richard Saltonstall, together with a body of Pilgrims or Separatists, had founded Watertown, Massachusetts, where a church was "gathered" under Phillips as pastor, Au- gust 27, 1630. The latter came from Box- ford, county Essex, and most of the colonists were members of his former charge. Un- fortunately, the records describing the settle- ment of Watertown are not in existence, but on page 4 of the earliest book of records is the first entry in which the names of colonists are mentioned: "Nov. 14, 1635-agreed that Daniel Patrick, Brian Pemberton, Richard Bernard, Ephraim Child. Abram Browne, Charles Chaddock and John Reynolds shall divide to every man his Property and Meddow and upland that is plowable and the rest to be common."
The first book of deeds entitled "The Wa- tertown Lands. Grants and Possessions" page 157 and constituting the second inventory, de- seribes his allotment as follows: "John Rei- nolds, An Homestall of five acres and half by estimation bounded the North with the Ifighway, the South with Isaac Mixer and the East with John Sherman granted to him."
Learning of the rich meadows along the Connecticut river, some few of the Water- town colonists, in the late autumn of 1634, founded the settlement of "Pyquag." now Wethersfield, and spent the winter there. On May 29th of the year following, six persons (among them Robert Reynolds) under the head of Rev. Richard Denton, who had re- ceived their dismissal from the Watertown church March 29th of that year, set out to "form a newe in a church covenant in the River of Connecticut" Conn. Col. Records, p. 1).
On October 15th, 1635, ahout sixty colon-
ists set out from Watertown to the new set- tlement. Such was the general distress that many of them returned in December, but in the early spring of 1636 once more repaired to "Watertown on the Connecticut River." It was not until Feb. 21, 1637, that the settle- ment received the name of Wethersfield. The colonists were continually exposed to danger from the Pequots. In April, 1637, they way- laid the settlers as they were going into their ing with those from Windsor and Hartford fields and killed six men and three women. On May 26, 1637, the Wethersfield men, unit- ing with those from Windsor and Hartford and with seventy Mohegans under their sachem, Uncas, attacked the Pequots, burnt seventy wigwams and killed five or six hun- dred of the enemy. (See Trumbull, vol. I, chap. V.)
Both John and Robert were among those who removed from Watertown prior to July 25, 1636, as they did not share in that divi- sion of land. As stated above, John still owned property in Watertown at the time of the second inventory, i. e., 1644. Robert Feke, Brian Pemberton and Daniel Patrick are also included, although all of them had removed to Wethersfield and Stamford.
Robert removed from Wethersfield to Bos- ton, where he died April 27. 1659. His will. executed 20, 2, 1658, proved in Boston, July 27, 1659, gives the names of Mary, his wife, and children: Nathaniel, Ruth Whitney, Ta- bitha Abdy, Sarah Mason, and Mary Sanger. His will concludes with the statement, "I and my wife being stricken in age and are almost past our Labour." From this we must con- clude that he was born about 1590, and was either much older than his brother John, or that the latter was born carlier than 1612, the date of birth attributed to him. (See New Eng. His. & Gen. Reg., vol. ix, p. 137.) His only son Nathaniel removed to Bristol, Rhode Island, where the family still continues. The tombstone of Joseph, Nathaniel's son, still standing at Bristol, is well known as a fine example of early carving and shows the Reynolds coat of arms-three foxes statant in pale proper, crest on an Esquire's helmet, a fox statant proper.
John Reynolds' house as given in the map of Wethersfield was on High street, the third from the meeting house and near the center of the town. This and other property were recorded by him, "the 12th month and II daic, 1640," and again recorded by John Hol- lister on 3m 2od 1644, as "bought of John Reynolds."
It was not long before internal dissensions were disturbing the church at Wethersfield
1826

and dividing inhabitants as well as the breth- ren. The Rev. Richard Denton became the leader of the more progressive and radical party. The ministers of the other churches of the river, and Mr. Davenport from New Haven, successively tried to unite the fac- tions. The latter suggested the expediency of one of the parties removing and making a new settlement. At length a number of men who were the most pleased with the advice of Mr. Davenport and the New Haven breth- ren, and to whom the government of that colony was most agreeable, determined to re- move and settle in combination with New Haven. Nathaniel Turner had on July Ist, 1640, on behalf of the New Haven Colony, bought of Pontis, sagamore of Toquams, and of Wascussee, sagamore of Shippan, a tract of land which includes the present towns of Darien and Stamford and part of Greenwich paying about 33 pounds for a tract of land of one hundred and twenty-eight square miles. This tract, Rippowanis, Mr. Andrew Ward and Mr. Robert Coe. of Wethersfield, on October 30, 1640, purchased of the New Ha- ven Colony on behalf of themselves and about twenty other planters on these conditions : Ist. The Wethersfield men were to give the price paid to the Indians for the land by Mr. Turner. 2nd. A fifth part of the lands were to be reserved to be disposed of by the court to such other settlers as they saw fit. 3d. They were to join with the New Haven plan- tation in the form of government there adopted. Twenty men were to settle in Stam- ford by the last of November, 1641.
It was decided that the majority of the seven church members, church membership being essential to becoming a freeman, should remove with a minority of the planters and that they should take the church organization with them. Thirty men, among them John Reynolds, volunteered as pioneers of the new colony. These subscribed "100 bushels of corne" to be paid May or June, 1641, to the New Haven Colony, to make good the pur- chase price of the land, each man giving as he was able and receiving a proportional amount of land. In this subscription, Mr. Denton ranks third with 4.1 bu. : Jo. Rey- nolds, eighth with 3.2. bu. (Stamford Rec- ords. p. 5.)
Of these thirty, twenty-eight removed to the site of Stamford in the summer of 1641. On October 19th they held their first meeting, electing five men to form a provisional gov- ernment and dividing the land between them. An account of this is to be found at Stam- ford in the earliest town record entitled "1640- 41 a towne book of ye free holders of ye
towne of Stamford as it was after wards called but now Rippowan, containing the acts and conclusions of the companie of Wethers- field men." At this meeting "the man under consideration absenting himself while his case was in hand and so successively and when he was called in again and demanded if so much gave him content and so content and satisfaction was by every one of these men acknowledged and they set down these num- bers of acres of marsh and upland after the same proportion that followeth xxx Mr. Den- ton 14 acres xxx John Renoulds 11 acres." (Stamford Records, p. 7.)
The New Haven Colony had not been fully satisfied by the one hundred bushels of corn, so that an assessment was laid to make this good. The following is John Reynolds' ac- count : "For rate-now 56.10.0 and due at W. 13. s. 6 d and to received Jo Renoulds 17 S. II d. makes 4. 1bs.08-3.,' each of whom sub- scribed a 'pick.' The next mention of him is in a list of twelve men. Here his name ap- pears as Jo. Renoulds. Latter is a tax list to make good the loss of the town mill and dam and for building a 'captain's house.' 'Jo. Reynoulds debtor for loss by mill 2 6 9. house 13 both 39.9 and he hath paid ( for loss) at mill, First bill 9 s. 6. and dam 9 s. 3 S. house, 12 s. last charge 5. s. all 38 s. 6d.' "
The last mention of him is in a deed recorded March, 1651, of property in the extreme west section of the town, near the site of Old Greenwich, bounded by "ye lot which was John Renoles." (Stamford Records, p. 51.)
On page 55 of the original Stamford rec- ords is recorded the marriage of his dangh- ter: "Peter Ferris and Elizabeth Rinealls joyned ye 15 July, 1654." Her husband, Free- man, of Stamford, Connecticut, 1662, repre- sentative 1667, was the son of Jeffrey Fer- ris, one of the seven original proprietors of Greenwich, who had, like John Reynolds, re- moved successively from Watertown and Wethersfield to Stamford. They had the fol- lowing children: 1. Joseph, son of Peter Fer- ris. b. 20-6-1657, (Stam. Rec. p. 74.) 2. Illeg-
ible, son of Peter Ferris, illegible. 1659. 3. Elizabeth, dau. of Peter Ferris, b. 28-11-1659 -d-5-2-1660, Stamford Rec. p. 98. 4. Mary, dan. of Peter Ferris, b. May 2, 1662. ( Stam. Rec. p. 76.) 5. Elizabeth, dan. of Peter Ferris, b. Jan. 2, 1664. (Stam. Rec. p. 76.)
As Peter Ferris is mentioned as Sen. in the entry of his death, September 28, 1706, it is probable that the illegible name was Peter.
On page 19 of the Stamford Records is en- tered the death of the wife of John: "Sarrah Reanolds died 31-16-1657." On page 20 a second entry gives it as "Sarra Reanols died
1827

ye 31 August 1657." We have records of only three of John's children: 1. Elizabeth, b. about 1634. 2. Jonathan, b. about 1636. 3. John, b. about 1638.
The subsequent history of John is unde- termined. A John Reynolds, often confused with him, was at Wethersfield as early as June 29, 1674, when he had by Naomi Lati- mer a son John, and a second son Jonathan. As Naomi Latimer was born April 4, 1648, he would have been approximately thirty-six years older than his wife, and sixty-two years of age when the first child was born. These children are not to be confounded with the John and Jonathan of Greenwich, as the his- tories of all four are well known. It is said that only a few years ago there was at Weth- ersfield a tombstone to a certain John Rey- nolds who died in 1662. The constant recur- rence of the names John and Jonathan in the Greenwich and Wethersfield families implies an intimate connection.
Jonathan, eldest son of John the Emigrant.
The site of "Old Greenwich," now Sound Beach, lying some three miles to the west of Stamford, had been purchased from the In- dians on behalf of the New Haven Colony, on July 18, 1640, by Robert Feaks and Cap- tain Daniel Patrick, the latter a companion of John Reynolds of Watertown and Wethers- field
About 1653 many of the settlers of Stam- ford had moved there, and among the earli- est inhabitants were Jonathan and John Rey- nolds, whose land lay along the Two Brothers' Brook, which fact probably suggested its name.
Subsequently to 1653 the name of Jonathan Reynolds appears but once in the Stamford Records: "Jan. 7, 1666, Wm. Grimes for swearing veanly hy ye name of God it being fully proved by Mr. Jones and Jonathan Re- nolds and Jos. Knapp ye said Grimes is fined ten shillings and to pay all charges of his be- ing to Stamford which is four shillings to each man." This Grimes at that time was an "Inhabitant" of Greenwich, as were the wit- nesses.
In the Greenwich Town Records is an ac- count of a town meeting held February 5, 1664, in which it was proposed to divide the "common lands by a rule of proportion accord- ing to what cach man's estate shall be visable." The proprietors are given as follows: "Jeffre Ferris Sense. Joshua Knapp Sense, Joseph Ferris, Jonathan Reynolds, Angell Heus- ted, John Mead Sense, John Hobbe." These were termed the "Seven Proprietors." (Sense is an abbreviation for Senior.)
One of the earliest deeds recorded at Green- wich (p. 3. vol. A.) is a bill of sale bearing date December 13, 1665, from Richard Vowles of Rye to Jonathan Ronalds, of Green- wich, of "seven acres of upland more or lesse which lieth within the compass of ye land that was called ye ox pasture, situate in Green- wich, bounded as followeth, northerly by ye hye way, westerly by Grimes land and south- erly by Joseph Ferrises land, Easterly by a Swamp, also three acres of Maddow more or less bounded southwest by Jonathan Ronaldoes land, North east by Joseph Ferris, Westerly by Joshua Knapps' land and Eastardly by Jonathan Ronoldes upland also a sartaine par- soll of upland XXX also my whole rite and interest Elizabeth Neck also my whole inter- est in land unto Myanos River." At the bot- tom of the page is the following :
I, Jonathan Ronalds do by this firmly assigne and make over this within bill of sale unto my Brother John Ronalds freely oneing and ac- knowledging the whole rite and interest in ye aforsayd bill of sale to be his to wit my brother John Reynolds and for a witness of ye truth of ye same I have set to my hand according to date within written, Jonathan Ronalds.
In presence of
Joseph Mead,
Timothy Knapp.
This bill and deed entered in the year of our Lord 1682. Februari 27.
In 1667 Jonathan Reynolds was made a member of the Assembly for Greenwich, and on October 24th, 1669, he was made a free- man of Connecticut by the Assembly of Green- wich. On December 28th, 1669. Jonathan Rey- nolds, Sargent Lockwood, John Hobby, Joshua Knapp, John Mead, and Joseph Mead, were appointed to free the town of all claims by Daniel Patrick, the son of Daniel Patrick, formerly Patroon of the Manor, who now ap- peared laying claims to his fathers land. The committee for the settlers who held by squat- ter sovereignty bought him off by paying a horse, saddle and bridle and fifty pounds. He served on various important committees for the laying out of lands. for making survey of Horseneck to see if it be suitable for the settlement of a township," as surveyor of highways, etc., all of which appointments are recorded in the Common Place Book of Green- wich.
The following is a last mention of Jonathan in the Greenwich Records: "At town meeting 13, 12th month, Joshua Knapp is chosen to be a townman in the room of Jonathan Reynolds." No other business was considered at this meeting. The last previous meeting was November 13. 1673. It is there- fore probable that he died in November or December, 1673.
Letters of administration on his estate now

filed at Fairfield. Connecticut, January 23, 1673-74, speak of him as "lately deceased," and mention his children : Jonathan R., about 13 years; John R., about II years; Joseph R., about 412 years: Rebecca R., about 14 years : Sarah R., aged 8 last November 6th ; Elizabeth R., aged 6 last August.
Apportionment was by Angell Heusted and Jonathan Knapp. He left a "widow Renals" and a total estate of three hundred and fifty- eight pounds. Inventory taken March 10, 1673-74. Ebenezer. a posthumous child, was born in 1673.
The apportionment was by Angell Heusted, and showed a total estate of three hundred and fifty-eight pounds. The will of Angell Heus- ted, also filed at Fairfield in 1706, mentions his "son-in-law Jonathan Renalds." It is possible that the "widow Renals" mentioned in the apportionment might have been a daughter of Heusted. While the above estate would not to-day be considered a large one. it was sufficient to place him second among the "Twenty-seven Proprietors of 1672," who purchased the Horseneck track, for at that time the rights in the distribution of land were based upon the wealth of the colonists.
The following are the descendants of Jona- than Reynolds as far as they have been as- certained : unless otherwise stated it may be assumed that they were all of Greenwich, Connecticut.
We have no information concerning the eldl- est child. Rebecca, excepting that she was born in 1659.
