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?

  - who immigrated to America in 1682 aboard the
