On the 'edit' page for this profile, please change the LAST NAME AT BIRTH to one of the spellings, and put the other one in the Other Last Names field. "Reynolds or Runnells" is not a correct naming convention on WikiTree. Please let me know if you don't understand or if I can help. Thanks!

Please consider changing last name at birth to a single name that you believe is most accurate - say Runnels then add other viable variations to the other last names box Runnells, Reynolds

Having multiple names in the last name at birth box creates a wiki bot error. We may never know the proper spelling - if his parents were illiterate or the town clerk did not know the correct spelling. People also chose different spellings in Maine prior to 1892 when the State took controll vital records. Thanks for your work on WikiTree Darryl
