His Brattons were in Illinois, Kansas, & some moved to California...Shocked to see this Police officer in CA named Bratton on the news...makes you wonder. I was called for a prescription transfer from York, SC & was promptly asked if I were kin to the Bratton's of York County, SC. I replied I married a Bratton and he told me of Brattonsville, SC. All these years 3 hrs down the road & never heard of it. So we stopped by on our way back from a visit to Illinois in March. It was really neat & we got asked again if we were originals. Havent been able to look for that info they said was at the Library center. Anybody got any clues on a William Jasper Bratton.! ..I think he went by Jasper.

I am interested in the four original brothers and have a paper that tells a little more about them. Polly is a nickname for Mary. It is very commonly used.

Robert Bratton, my ancestor, who married ann McFarland Dunlap came to Augusta County, VA 1730's. from PA. Born 1712 Donegal N. Ireland , died 1785 Augusta county, Va. It is said he was council to Mrs Dunlap when her husband died about 1743. They lived at present Goshen, VA in Augusta County, about 35 miles west of Staunton VA on the "Parkersburg Pike", present route 42. The railroad came to Goshen just beforre the war, and was extended after. Bratton moved into the Dunlap homeplace which was just above the railroad on the south side of the village, way up on a steep hill. It later, about 1880 became the Allegheny hotel, a fine resort. Buned about 1930 You can still today see the pathway going from the raolroad to the hotel. Robert Bratton bought lands nearby as well as on the Jackson River, and left to one son an estate on the Jackson. I have no information on his dealings with Ralph Lafferty, but would like them. Robert directed his son John to provide land for the New Lebanon Church, whihc he did in an 1800 deed. The cemetery of the old Meeting House (ca 1750) has been restored, about 2/3 mile north of the present church. That is where Robert and Ann are most certainly buried, but unprovable. My record shows his parents to be Andrew and Andrea Bratton, but again no proof. Does your information about lands on the Jackson River make any reference to a place called Rocks Rest? I thihnk it is the land left to James, the elder son. Daley Craig daleycraig@cs.com

I received a reply to my query on Robert Bratton from Patsy Weikert but cannot seem to find a way to reply directly to her email alddress. I am looking for information on Robert Bratton who was in August Co. VA in 1769 and in 1770 when he sold land on the Jackson River with my ancestor Ralph Lafferty. I think he was the one married to Ann McFArland. I am wondering what information someone might have on who he was, where he came from, where he lived, and if there could have been some relationship with Ralph Lafferty. Thanks for any help that may be forthcoming. Pat Johnson Dayton,OH

Hi. I just made an awful goof and sent a message on Capt. Bratton when it was meant for the Wilson list. Talk about dumb mistakes!! What I am looking for is infomation on the Bratton family of late 18th century Augusta Co. VA. If you have anything on them, I would appreciate knowing of it. Thanks Pat Johnson Dayton, OH

Does anyone have information on Capt. Robert Bratton of VA? I think he was from Augusta Co. and led a group of men from that area at Pittsburgh in 1776. He was a friend of my ancestor who was with him and wounded there. Would appreciate anything that would throw light on that mission. Thanks Pat Johnson Dayton, OH

Pat I saw your query of Robert Bratton. I understand that the elder gentleman Robert Bratton married to Anne McFarland Dunlap are the grandparents of young William with Lewis & Clark. I have an approved supplemental of the elder Robert Bratton in my DAR line. Do you need info or question that I could try to help you? Patty
