    Notes:

    These Bradshaw records are from Howard and Lee Ann Propst, 5639 Catherine Ave., La Grange, IL 60525. They have done extensive work on the Bradshaw, Scruggs, Field, and Jones families and have published their work in newsletters and journals specific to these families. The earliest Bradshaw ancestor they have proved is John.

    1688--12 October: John Breidshew, aged 24 years or thereabouts, ...saith...that he the depont being servant to John Granger did (sometime last spring on a Sunday morning) see Mary the wife of the said John Granger say that John Womack had six fletches of bacon in his house besides middling and other small meat and had killed but one hogg out of his own stock that year. (Henrico Co. VA 1677-1739, Book 5, p. 10.)

    1688--12 October: John Bradshaw aged 24 years or thereabouts examined and sworn saith that about two days before John Granger's tobacco house wherein was Sam'l Fowlers tobacco was burned Lain Fowler did say that had to have John Granger's barn...and that he would bring more danage on him the said Granger than he was aware of and the next day such was...day before the house was burned. Fowler said to Depont (John Bradshaw) that he dreamt Mary the wife of John Granger had fired the tobacco house and burnt all his tobacco. (Henrico Co. Records 1677-1739).

    1688--October Court: John Bradshaw having attended two days as evidence for John Womack against Jno Granger has order granted his against Agent ye sd. Womack for 80 pounds of tobacco. (Henrico Co. VA Records 1677-1739, p. 286).

    1690--Court: Richard Kennon patents 8,000 acres, headrights include: John Bradshaw. (Henrico Co. Va. Records 1677-1739, p. 327).

    1696--1 June: John Bradshaw having attended two days as an evidence against Will Arrington on be halfe of ffra Reeve judgement is awarded against him the sd. Reeve for 80 pounds of tobacco according to the law with costs. (Henrico Co. Records 1677-1793, Book 3).

    After the above records, no further records seem to exist on this John Bradshaw; however, very shortly the name of Elizabeth Bradshaw surfaces in Henrico County. It is believed that she was the wife of John. It is also believed that Larner, Benjamin, and William of Henrico and later Goochland and Cumberland counties and a younger John Bradshaw II were all descendants of this John and Elizabeth.


    "Cavaliers and Pioneers" by Nell M. Nugent says Ed Walsh received 900 acres for bringing 18 people to Virginia. John Bradshaw was one of them.


    It is yet to be found for sure when and how John Bradshaw arrived in the United States. One account has John Bradshaw arriving in America in 1687 on the ship "Endeavor". Another account of his arrival as coming from Ireland transported by Richard Kennon in 1683. This account is somewhat backed up by court records in Henrico County, Virginia, which show this transportation Kennon did not put in his claim for land until April 1, 1690, at which time he put in a claim for 8,000 acres.

    Henrico Co., Va. Court Orders 1678 - 1693: pg 362 April 1, 1690 There is due to Mr. Richard Kennon , 8000 acres for importation of ...... John Bradshaw....... The list includes 89 whites and 70 Negroes.
    Ages as given by deposition in county records in 1688 - 1697 Book, Henrico Co., Va. October 12 1688, pg 10 John Bradshaw, 24. This puts his birth year at 1664.

    There is also an account that John, the 4th child of Ralph and Rachel sailed from England with his brother James, and his brother-in-law, Admiral William Crispin around 1680. They stopped over in Barbados, where the Admiral died, and they went on to Philadelphia, where their cousin, William Penn, was presiding. Some researchers then maintain that he went on after a bit to Henrico County, Virginia. There, he surrounded himself with people of the same names that appeared with his family back in England: Robinson, Marham, Radcliffe, etc.

    John married Rachel Broughton Between 1665 and 1702, Henrico County, Virginia. (daughter of Anne Broughton and Elizabeth Pleasants, daughter of John Broughton and Elizabeth Bradshaw) [Group Sheet]

It is believed that she was the wife of John. It is also believed that Larner, Benjamin, and William of Henrico and later Goochland and Cumberland counties and a younger John Bradshaw II were all descendants of this John and Elizabeth.

    "Cavaliers and Pioneers" by Nell M. Nugent says Ed Walsh received 900 acres for bringing 18 people to Virginia. John Bradshaw was one of them.

    It is yet to be found for sure when and how John Bradshaw arrived in the United States. One account has John Bradshaw arriving in America in 1687 on the ship "Endeavor". Another account of his arrival as coming from Ireland transported by Richard Kennon in 1683. This account is somewhat backed up by court records in Henrico County, Virginia, which show this transportation Kennon did not put in his claim for land until April 1, 1690, at which time he put in a claim for 8,000 acres.

    Henrico Co., Va. Court Orders 1678 - 1693: pg 362 April 1, 1690 There is due to Mr. Richard Kennon , 8000 acres for importation of ...... John Bradshaw....... The list includes 89 whites and 70 Negroes.

    Ages as given by deposition in county records in 1688 - 1697 Book, Henrico Co., Va. October 12 1688, pg 10 John Bradshaw, 24. This puts his birth year at 1664.

    There is also an account that John, the 4th child of Ralph and Rachel sailed from England with his brother James, and his brother-in-law, Admiral William Crispin around 1680. They stopped over in Barbados, where the Admiral died, and they went on to Philadelphia, where their cousin, William Penn, was presiding. Some researchers then maintain that he went on after a bit to Henrico County, Virginia. There, he surrounded himself with people of the same names that appeared with his family back in England: Robinson, Marham, Radcliffe, etc.

    John married Elizabeth Pleasants Between 1665 and 1702, Henrico County, Virginia. Elizabeth (daughter of John William Pleasants, daughter of John Pleasants and Jane Larcome) was born 1668, Henrico, Virginia, United States; died 1721, Henrico, Virginia, United States. [Group Sheet]

    Notes:

    A certain WILLIAM BRADSHAW (born in Henrico Parish circa 1690 - died 1747/48) appears in Henrico Court records as early as 6th June 1711, when he receives a pewter dish from the last will of Anne PERRIN(T ?) (PYRANT /). In 1712, at age 22, he married Judith SCRUGGS (or Snuggs, or Suggs ?), born about 1696/98 - died 10th Juy 1749, daughter of Charles SCRUGGS (1665-1718) and his wife Mary Field Jones.

    Judith was probably no older than 16 when she married (perhaps as young as 14).

    William and Judith lived in Virginia on the north side of the James River on land she inherited from her mother's family (the Field's) and land that was purchased from other members of the Field family.

    At one time William Bradshaw owned 1,530 contiguous acres in Cumberland County, Virginia. Part of his land was located at a place known today as Maxey's Mill. The last of this land was sold in 1777 by a grandson of William. The descendants of William and Judith Bradshaw migrated to North Carolina, Tennessee, Kentucky, Illinois, and westward.

    Other accounts of his death in other databases list the date of death as December 18, 1748 in Cumberland Co., Virginia. As of this time I have not found out which date and place is correct.

    William Bradshaw's will was recorded 15 September 1747. His wife Judith was executrix of the estate with John Merriman and Benjamin Bradshaw, security. (Goochland County Order Book 6, p. 375.)

    Goochland Co., VA Order Book 6 p 375 15 Sep 1747

    Judith Bradshaw comes into Court and makes Oath that William Bradshaw deceased died without any will so far as she knows or believes and on her motion a certificate is granted her for obtaining letters of Administration in due form. John Merriman and Benjamin Bradshaw entering themselves security for the same.
    Ordered that Benjamin Mosby, Hezeekiah Mosby, Philip Poindexter and Samuel Scott or any three of them being first sworn before some Justice of the Peace do appraise the Estate of William Bradshaw deceased and that his Administratrisc do return an Inventory thereof to the next Court.

    William married Judith Scruggs 1712, Henrico County, Virginia. Judith (daughter of Charles Scruggs and Mary Field) was born Between 1692 and 1968, Henrico County, Virginia; died 10 Jul 1749, Henrico County, Virginia. [Group Sheet]

    Notes:

    Benjamin was perhaps apprenticed to William Ballew after his father's death. Benjamin's mother, Elizabeth, then the wife of Arthur Marcum, took her complaints of Benjamin's treatment by Ballew to court. (Henrico Co. VA Court Minutes Records Reel l, p. 66.).

    Notes:

    John Bradshaw and his wife, Anne, lived near Namozine Creek in Prince George County, Va. During the years when their children were born they were living in Bristol Parish. All of the births of their children are recorded in the Bristol Parish Register.

    Prince George County, Virginia Deed Book 1713-1728, pg. 757:
    Survey for John BRADSHAW of 91 acres lying between the Lummiseen Creek (Namozine) and the Mawhipponock Creek (Whipponock), between the Namozine Road and Appomatox River. Feb. 1, 1720/1
    This site, shown on the Dinwiddie County 1820 map, has a HAMBLIN Mill located in the survey area...there is also a deed in Prince George County dated May 9, 1738 which has John BRADSHAW and his wife Ann, selling land to Edward PARHAM. For this sale Ann renounces her dower right. This sounds like the same property.

    Amelia County was formed from Prince George County, Va. in 1735....
