The one who was the son of Robert Bortree and Margaret Holland who married Anna Killam. They lived in Salem Township, Wayne County, PA in 1850. The other Thomas Bortree was born in Ireland in 1779 and died 1 Mar 1863. He was the son of Matthew Bortree and unknown female. He married Ann (Mary) Heazelton (Hazelton). They lived in the Sterling Township, Wayne County, PA in 1850. And coincidentally they each had a grandson named Thomas Bortree. Thanks to all who responded to my question on Thomas' death date. I think the will abstraction answered the question without a doubt. Carol
