Reynolds sought to disinherit Anne in 1930s estate case
H. G. Hudson for the Reynolds family testified in Forsyth superior court that Smith Reynolds sought legal advice on disinheriting his first wife Anne Cannon and baby Anne shortly after the child’s birth. He noted Reynolds drafted a will in 1931 leaving only $50,000 to each, and that Reynolds remarried six days after a Reno divorce in 1931 to Libby Holman. The Cabarrus Bank and Trust Co. contests the settlement as invalid.
