I think who you are looking for are Benjamin Jolly who married Susannah Robinett on Dec.1,1759 in Christ's Church, Philadelphia. He was not from England however though his parents may have been. They were James Jolly & Sarah Taylor of Bucks Co.Pa. and are in the records from 1699 ( though not married yet. see Quaker records) James Jr. left a will in Bucks Co. leaving legacies to his brothers & sisters and their children. One was Sarah Brenner " daughter of brother Benjamin". Ben was taxed in Bedford Co.Pa. 1773 in Colrain Twp. 1775, in Turkeyfoot Twp. and 1776-1779-1783 in Quemhoning Twp. Later that year (1783) he moved and was in the tax list for Shipton Twp. Wash. Co.Md. He died intestate in 1814 in Allegany Co.Md. ( cut from Wash.1789) His son James applied for the letters. As we have no Will not all the children are known. James, Sarah & Peter I have been able to document. Phoebe I have not. My recods show Phoebe was born 1779 and died in Perry Co. Ohio at age 76. You have her birth as 1774. I would like to know which is correct.
