John Reynolds (of Neath)

From Graces Guide

John Reynolds, of Neath, has proposed to give to the rails, bars, or plates, an equal support in every part of their length, so that they shall not be susceptible of depression or deflection; and this he proposes to effect by two methods, for which he obtained a patent on the 5th May, 1835.
