John left 300 acres &c to Gabriell PICKRELL. He left land to other people as well that did not seem to be related. It seems that Gabriell came to VA in 1696 as an indentured worker to an Augustine Smith. Do you know why John Bradford would leave acreage to Gabriell? Any insight into this would be appreciated.
