Barber Watkins Reynolds house as it was built in 1876 Drawing by E. M. Schiewetz, From Interwoven, 1982 edition
Two books, Interwoven, A Pioneer Chronicle by Sallie Reynolds Matthews, published in 1936, and Rennolds-Reynolds Family Roster by Stephen F. Tillman, published in 1959, state that the parents of Barber Watkins Reynolds were Benjamin Franklin Reynolds -- Sarah Barber.
The will of George Barber, Sr., and his wife Margaret (Watkins) Barber, on pages 8-11 of this genealogy, prove that the parents of Barber Watkins Reynolds were George Reynolds and Sarah Barber, not Benjamin Franklin Reynolds.
Sallie Reynolds Matthews was the daughter of Barber Watkins Reynolds. She states in Interwoven that her father and Sam R. Barber of Weatherford, Texas were double first cousins. Samuel Reynolds Barber was the son of George Barber Jr. and his wife Elizabeth Reynolds. George Barber and Sarah Barber were brother and sister, and George Reynolds and Elizabeth Reynolds were brother and sister. "Watt" Reynolds and Sam R. Barber were double first cousins, but Watt's father was George Reynolds, and not Benjamin Franklin Reynolds. In 1975, before my book was published, I called Watkins Reynolds Matthews and asked him if he had a Bible record stating that his ancestors were Benjamin Franklin Reynolds and Sallie Barber. He did not. I had no idea at the time that he was a prominent rancher.
Barber Watkins Reynolds was the first commissioner of Buchanan County, Texas (now Stephens County)
The Reynolds-Matthews family founded the first Presbyterian Church in Albany, Texas, also a Presbyterian Orphanage.
George Thomas Reynolds and William David Reynolds were among the founders of the first National Bank of Albany, Texas, and George was the founder of First National Bank in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. He also was a Confederate Civil War veteran.
Glenn Reynolds was the first sheriff of Throckmorton County, Texas, later was sheriff of Gila County, Arizona. He was killed by his prisoners while he was transporting them to another place. One of his prisoners was the Apache Kid.
Samuel Pierce Newcomb was the first clerk of Buchanan County, Texas, was also a school teacher and surveyor.
John Alexander Matthews, commissioner of Shackelford County, Texas, became Judge in Throckmorton County in 1894.
John Matthews married Anna Beck. Some of their children: 1. Joseph Beck Matthews married Carolina Spears, daughter of Alexander and Lucinda (Maynor) Spears. A. Lucinda Elizabeth Matthews married George Thomas Reynolds, son of Barber Watkins Reynolds. B. John Alexander Matthews married Salie Ann Reynolds, daughter of Barber Watkins Reynolds C. Mary Jane Matthews married (1) John M. Larn 28 Nov 1872, (2) Rev. John Brown in 1880, divorced in 1895. John M. Larn was a sheriff, a cattle rustler and a horse thief. He was killed 24 June 1878 in the Albany, Texas jail by a vigilante committe, believed to be led by some of the Reynolds brothers.61 One rumor also named John A. Matthews, the husband of Sallie Reynolds Matthews and a brother-in-law of Larn, which Matthews denied. Another rumor named Mart Hoover, another brother-in-law of Larn. His last name was spelled Laren on the 1860 census of Alabama. John Brown was a Presbyterian minister in Albany and later Fall River, Massachusetts. Mary was not happy in Massachusetts or with John Brown, and they were divorced by 1895. Rev Brown published a book in 1896 called "Twenty-Five Years a Parson in the Wild West" a thinly disguised autobiography. One chapter is entitled "The Unlucky Ranch" dealing with the John Larn property. Mary Jane has been quoted as remarking of her two husbands: "I married a cow thief the first time, and a preacher the second, and I do believe the cow thief was the best man." "Fearing that Selman might collect a party large enough to rescue Larn, Glenn Reynolds, with Bill Howsley and his posse, started to Albany, making the trip in less than three hours. Here they joined the vigilante chief, the sheriff, his deputies, and other members of the possse that had brought in Larn. Around midnight, nine men left the rendezvous, quietly approaching the jail from behind, unseen by Mary, who kept watch from the second-floor window of the rooming house. The men crept up to the picket house in which twelve men were chained through their manacles from wall to wall, with iron shackles on their ankles, lyingon blanket pallets, side by side. Hurricane Bill, strangely enough, lay next to John Larn. Alert to the familier tramp of approaching vigilantes and afraid it was he who would be shot, he turned his face to the wall, as did the man on Larn's other side. The nine vigilantes chosen to enter the jail (one had cast a dissenting vote but nonetheless went in) had placed bandanas over the lower part of their faces and wore long, yellow range slickers so as not be be recognized by the other prisoners or by the four guards, who they disarmed and sent away. They strode through the door, and John Larn stood up to face them. The masked leader, very tall and straight, said, "In recognition of your better qualities, we are not going to hang yu." Larn called them cowards and lifted his chin in defiance. A fusillade rang out and Larn fell to the floor. ........ "The identities of the men who appeared at the jail are not known, though it is reasonable to assume that most of them, at least, had been with the posses who seized Larn and went after Selman. Bill Howsley, a Reynolds hand, admitted to Phin Reynolds that he was there and hinted as to the identity of the leader. "Bill Howsley told me that there were nine men in the bunch that killed Larn and that he was with them. He said they wore slickers and bandanas around their forheard.He said the leader was a tall man, and I said 'I Guess that he was Tom Merrill, who worked for the Horse Shoes on the Double Fountain Fork.' He said, 'No, it was not him,' and left the impression it was one of my brothers." From the book, "Lambshead Before Interwoven: A Texas Range Chronicle 1848-1878" Chapter 14, pages 153-155 a. William Alexander Larn, born 17 Dec 1873, TX, died 3 June 1937, Douglas, Cochise Co AZ. b. Joseph Beck Larn, born 24 March 1875, Cooper, Delta Co TX died 17 Sep 1875 in Camp Cooper, TX. D. Martha Ann Matthews married Martin Van Buren Hoover. E. Susan Alice Matthews married William David Reynolds, son of Barber Watkins Reynolds. F. Rose Ella Matthews married Frank Eben Conrad. Frank was one of the founders of First National Bank, Albany, Texas. 2. Frank Baker Matthews married Sarah Jane Wood. They had several children, including: A. Minnie Matthews married Samuel Augustus Newcomb, grandson of Barber Watkins Reynolds. B. Lulu Matthews married Frazier Cantelou, 1892. Frazier was the nephew of Anna Maria (Campbell) Reynolds. a. Betty Cantelou, adopted by George Thomas and Lucinda Elizabeth (Matthews) Reynolds. 3. Andrew Jackson Matthews married Caroline Golson Walton, several children including: A. Florence Rebecca Matthews married Benjamin Franklin Reynolds, son of Barber Watkins Reynolds. B. Roseannah Marion Matthews married Phineas Watkins Reynolds, son of Barber Watkins Reynolds.
