Simeon Wheeler Goff b1798 son of Isreal Goff in Mass. How does he get the Reynolds name??
Hi Mike,
We have yet to discover why Simeon chose to use the surname Reynolds once he deserted the military at the Bay of St. Louis, Mississippi. This is a continuing research question for me.
Please enjoy the two articles in the Summer 2017 newsletter on “The Descendants of Simeon Reynolds and the yDNA research to prove the line “Simeon Goff of Massachusetts Disappears into Mississippi”.
I am assuming you descend from Mattie Evelyn Reynolds and Wilbur Frank Pate?
