BRELSFORD ----------NLyon@aol.com
BRELSFORD, John ----------- md Mary DAVIS
(daughter of William), on 15 Feb 1779, Swede's Church, Philadelphia. John
apparently died before 1810, when Mary BRELSFORD appeared as head of a Bristol
Borough household. Widow Mary BRELSFORD md William SISOM, Jr., in 1820, and she
died before 1829. Children included sons John, Edward, and William Davis
BRELSFORD, and daughters Rebecca JAMES, Letitia HELLINGS, and Rachel WEST.
Letitia named one son Shepherd Brelsford HELLINGS, which may indicate
relationship to a Shepherd BRELSFORD. Was this BRELSFORD family related to a
SHEPHERD or SHEPPARD family? Who were John's parents and siblings?

---No Email available
- who immigrated to America in 1682 aboard the

the Will of Peter Worral on 3 Jun 1694. I believe one of his daughters,
Elizabeth, married a Rev. William Davis about 1687. I did not see this surname

died aft 1694 in PA, presumably in Bucks County He was a Quaker and first entered
membership at the Falls Monthly Meeting. In 1684 he was a Sheriff and in 1689 a
