Aunt ELIZABETH REYNOLDS was born on Indian Creek, in what was then the county of Clay, June 15, 1829 [and died October 21, 1901]. She was the daughter of the late Isaac H. Gabbard, [and Jane "Jenny" Isaacs] whose father, Henry Gabbard was one of the early settlers of Virginia.

Reared in the wholesome atmosphere of a pious home she early gave her heart to God, and began that walk with him which she continued through life.

October 3, 1850 she became the devoted wife of John S. Reynolds. Resultant of that union were twelve children, six of who have preceded her to the spirit world. The surviving children and aged husband mourn the loss of a loving wife and mother.

During the last few months of her life she was a constant sufferer in spite of every comfort that loving friends could devise.

She was a true devoted Christian and now passes to the just reward of a well-spent life on earth. No higher eulogy can be said of any woman than that she was a true wife, a devoted mother and a consistent Christian. — Stephen A. Gabbard.
