Hope they will be of help to someone - even if just to help you decide if you should order the will. (The numbers were on the list as I got it so will include them.) 145.

Here's another Temperance Bradshaw sighting! Aaron Brittain Hawkins b Burke CO, NC 1789 married Temperance Bradshaw ca. 1817 in Burke CO, NC. src: page 36: "The Hawkins Family Journal" by Harold Allen Hawkins and Janice Hawkins Elrod 1997 I am researching Hawkins and Bradshaw but my Bradshaw line is from John b. 1743 and Nancy Agnes Clendennin Bradshaw of Jefferson CO, TN. Consequently, I have nothing else on this Temperance. Elisabeth

Hi All! I just got this and had to send it to you! Anne "I WANT" I want ancestors with names like Rudimentary Montagnard or Melchizenick von Steubenhoffmannschild or Spetznatz Giafortoni, not William Brown or John Hunter or Mary Abbott. I want ancestors who could read and write, had their children baptized in recognized houses of worship, went to school, purchased land, left detailed wills (naming a huge extended family as legatees), had their photographs taken once a year -- subsequently putting said pictures in elaborate isinglass frames annotated with calligraphic inscriptions, and carved voluble and informative inscriptions in their headstones. I want relatives who managed to bury their predecessors in established, still-extant (and indexed) cemeteries. I want family members who wrote memoirs, who enlisted in the military as officers and who served in strategically important (and well documented) skirmishes. I want relatives who served as councilmen, schoolteachers, county clerks and town historians. I want relatives who `religiously' wrote in the family Bible, journaling every little event and detailing the familial relationship of every visitor. In the case of immigrant progenitors, I want them to have arrived only in those years wherein passenger lists were indexed by National Archives, and I want them to have applied for citizenship, and to have done so only in those jurisdictions which have since established indices. I want relatives who were patriotic and clubby, who joined every patrimonial society they could find, who kept diaries, and listed all their addresses, who had paintings made of their houses, and who dated every piece of paper they touched. I want forebears who were wealthy enough to afford, and to keep for generations, the tribal homestead, and who left all the aforementioned pictures and diaries and journals intact in the library. But most of all, I want relatives I can FIND!!!

Hi BJ, I have been following this trail too. I cannot come up with one good reason to believe that JOHN BRADSHAW was married to ELIZABETH PLEASANTS so far. As a matter of fact, since I've really started to look into this, I have found more evidence that they could NOT have been married than that they could. This may be one of the questions that we'll never know the answer to, but I can't find any evidence that JOHN was married to Elizabeth. I can't even find any evidence that JOHN was married to "AN" Elizabeth. From all of the evidence I have found it looks more like an ELIZABETH BRADSHAW was a close friend of the PLEASANT family, but I'm still looking. I hope you won't quit either!! I posted some listings for wills last week and I'm going to get copies of some of them. When I do I'll post to the list. I am in the process of transcribing a copy of the will of JOHN BRADSHAW of Isle of Wight Co., Va. that I received from Burton and when I get it pretty well figured out I'll post it to the list also.

This is from the book The Valentine Papers. Page 190 of the Valentine Papers, "Elizabeth Pleasants Cocke, the daughter of James Cocke and his wife Elizabeth Pleasants.

Hi Trina, I have a TEMPERANCE BRADSHAW d/o CHARLES BRADSHAW & JEMIMA HENDRICKS. The only info. I have on her is that she is mentioned in CHARLES" will.

Does anyone have any knowledge about a Temperance Bradshaw. All I know is that she was married to a Samuel Jacaway and they had a son Fields B. Jacaway born 2 Apr 1811, in Illinois. I really appreciate any help in this dead end. thank you, Trina

April 8, 1756 The Pennsylvania Gazette RUN away from Robert Alison, of Charlestown, in Maryland, a convict servant, named Edward << Bradshaw>> , a good likely fellow, and has the remains of a genteel dress, is a good clerk, professes himself a limner, and is supposed to paint tolerably well, has an uncommon cast in one of his eyes, plays a fiddle well, and generally carries one with him; also went in company with one Joseph Thornton, a convict servant, a thick short fellow, dressed as a sailor, which he pretends to be but is not. 'Tis said they went thro'Chester on Sunday the 21st of March, with a Party of recruits to Philadelphia. << Bradshaw>> enlisted with serjeant Hill, and proof being made that he was a convict, was restored to his master, as appears by the following receipt. New Castle, Feb. 20, 1756. Received from Robert Alison, on account of Edward << Bradshaw>> , he being a convict, Three Pounds Eight Shillings. Received by me WILLIAM HILL, serjeant. All Masters of vessels are forbid to carry off said servants; and hoped that all officers will have more honour, than to enlist convicts, from whom they can expect no fidelity; nor is it safe or honourable to employ such in his majestyservice; they will be apt to steal from their fellow soldiers, and desert the service as soon as they have an opportunity. Whoever takes up said servants, and brings them either to said Robert Alison, in Charlestown, or to Francis Alison, at his house in Race street, Philadelphia, shall have Thirty Shillings for each servant, and reasonable charges, paid by FRANCIS ALISON.
