About Agnes Ann Rich

CAUTION

There is little concrete evidence surrounding the wife of Roland McReynolds, who this profile represents. It's possible that she was Agnes (unknown last name, possibly Rich) or Anne Rich, daughter of Peter and Martha Rich. It is highly unlikely that her name was Agnes Anne. There may be confluence of two people going on in most McReynolds family histories. More research needed.

Certainly she was not the daughter of Joseph Rich and Sarah Coulson - no evidence shows they had a daughter named Agnes or Anne.

Biography

Maiden name believed to be Rich. She is possibly the daughter of Peter Rich and Martha Robinson.

Roland McReynolds was born in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, in 1739. He married Agnes Ann Rich about 1761 and became a farmer and fuller in Washington County, Virginia. It is said that he died in 1796 after he became drunk and froze to death when he became lost on his way home. Roland and Agnes had 8 children. [1]

Note

In the Will of Joseph Rich[2] and the Abstracts of Quaker Minutes[3] as compiled in Everett Eri Thomas's Rich Family Tree, it is clear Agnes Anne was referred to by her middle name "Anne". In the attached image of the Minutes, I have highlighted to show that both Martha and "Anne" married a "Reynolds", but Anne's parentage is not listed because her Father had already died and her Mother married out.

The Will also makes it clear that Agnes Anne was NOT the daughter of Joseph but was in fact the daughter of his brother Peter.
