Isaac was believed to have been born in Shenandoah Co., VA. (Previously Dunmore Co., VA.) as his father William was a land holder in the county. Isaac was possibly a resident of Knox Co., Tenn. in 1799 as he was noted as a Bondman for his sister Martha Patsy at the time of her marriage to Alexander

Foster. Isaac was a resident of White Co., Tenn. at the time of his death. His Will dated 27 Sept. 1835, proven in White Co., Tenn.

Notes:

 

Margaret Bradshaw ancestors go back to England. One James Bradshaw and brother John was a first cousin to William Penn. James came to Pennsylvania to help William Penn and start a new life in this new land.

Margaret has a stone in Blackjack Cemetery in Carroll Co., Ark. She is not buried there, her descendants placed a stone there in her memory, because she is buried on what is now private property and the owners would not allow at stone to be placed there. I do not know when this was done, or by whom.
