**The dates on the stone for Sarah are incorrect (see below)** The stone was obviously erected in the late 1900s or early 2000s by descendants, names unknown at this time. If the dates WERE taken from the original stone, then they were misread.

Sarah married John Devin Reynolds on July 19, 1808, in Henry Co, VA.

Name, Salley Reynolds, Age, 76 Birth Year, 1784, Gender, Female
Birth Place, Virginia Home in 1860, North District, Pittsylvania, Virginia, Post Office, Callands, Dwelling Number, 269 Family Number, 269, Occupation, Farmer Real Estate Value, 1500

Still living nearby is her son Charles Thomas Reynolds and family and also the Collins family.

It is clear that this is the same Sarah, so she didn't die in the 1850s as indicated on her stone. Also, the 1850 and 1860 census records consistently show a birth year of 1784/85 which matches other family records.
