Francis Andrew is my 6th generation Grandfather. Just a few minutes ago I found a site on John Bristow Jr. who married Margaret Smothers. It has lots of information. The other thing is that on family search.com John Bristow Jr. is listed as the father and Margaret Smothers the mother of the following children. Their names are listed as Smothers the surname of the mother on family search.com. I have added the Smothers/Bristow names as this is the way I find them listed. I will try to figure out some of the confusion, later tomorrow, for those interested try this site http://www.webcom.com/~duane/bristow.html#s23 extremely interesting the story of the Bristows.
