There is a marriage of a Harry Reynolds in the March quarter 1917 in Leeds 9b 573, the bride was Annie E Marshall.

However, the only death of an Annie E Reynolds I can see in Leeds was in 1920 and she was 43, so probably too old.

According to his second marriage his father was an Engine Fitter.

Thank you all for your replies Harry was from Hunslet, Leeds his dad was John Richardson Reynolds. Don't think it helps Harry Reynolds was such a popular name. Im trying to trace any descendants but not found anything yet, was hoping he'd had children withnhis previous wife.
Regards

Hi Joanne....

This is a very long shot !

But there are two births, registered Bradford. Surname Reynolds/mother Marshall

Marie T Reynolds Reg March qtr 1925
Veronica Reynolds Reg June qtr 1927

I cannot find a baptism to confirm that they are "yours" But I think that these are Catholic forenames...so may not show up in online data......
