General Notes: Husband - Richard Woodward


He obtained from his father, December 10th, 1698, one hundred and thirty acres of land in Thornbury, Chester County, Pennsylvania, and afterward purchased from Jacob Simcock, son of John Simcock, one hundred acres more, by deed of September 9th, 1708. He also bought ten acres and one hundred and thirty perches from Philip Taylor, who had bought of Edward Woodward.
He sold the Thornbury estate and purchased one thousand acres in what is now West Bradford township, to which he moved in 1727.

It is speculative which of his wives was the mother of his various children.
