Research Notes

  • This is the birthplace of his father, but I am not sure it is his. But in Wales
  • Death date proved 17 Mar 1742 at Haverford, PA. Source needed.
  • He mentions in his will his granddaughter, Perthiania and Susan. The executors were two of his sons Subilynus and Jeremiah. Subilynus, Jeremiah and Humphrey were also mentioned in his will, but there was no mention of his oldest son, Thomas. Thomas had a will dated 1728 and it is possible that he was deceased.
