Name Benjamin Bradshaw [1] Born Abt 1700 Henrico County, Virginia [1] Gender Male Died 17 Aug 1761 Goochland County, Virginia [1] Person ID I0321 My Genealogy Last Modified 20 Dec 2012
Father John Bradshaw, b. Between 1643 and 1664, England , d. Bef 1711, Henrico County, Virginia (Age < 67 years) Relationship natural Mother Rachel Broughton Relationship natural Married Between 1665 and 1702 Henrico County, Virginia [1] Notes - "Henrico County, Virginia Deeds 1677-1705" by Benjamin B. Weisiger III, 1996, pg. 104
Wills Deeds Etc. 1697-1704:
p.73 Edward Jones and Mary his wife for 5,600 lbs. tobacco made over to John Pleasants 180 acres, part of land which was their brother Field's, by deed of mortgage 4 April 1694. Mortgage has not been paid, and Pleasants sells said land to Gilly Groomarrin for 5,500 lbs. tobacco, reserving mineral rights.
14 March 1697/8
Wit: Fra. Reeve, ELIZABETH BRADSHAW
Signed: John Pleasants Recorded 1 April 1698
This is the only reference I can find for Elizabeth Bradshaw linking her to the Pleasants family so far. There is a strong inference here in so far as this transaction has nothing to do with her other than the possibility that she was related to John Pleasants. This is still being checked. There is a researcher who says that his will has the signature of Elizabeth Bradshaw on it, but I can find no proof of that so far.
There is also the possibility that her last name was JONES or even GROOMARRIN since she was witnessing this deed.
