General Notes: Husband - Robert Bradshaw


He came from Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania, about 1796, and bought 250 acres of land in South Beaver township, Beaver County.

He was a native of Ireland and came to America in the early settlement days. With his wife and family he located in South Beaver township, Beaver County, Pennsylvania, which was at the time a densely wooded section. He obtained a tract of four hundred acres of land, paying one dollar and twenty-five cents per acre, and there made a clearing near a spring. He erected a log cabin which was later replaced by a hewed log house twenty-four feet square. At the time of his death he had sold three hundred acres of the original tract. He was a Whig in politics, and a member of the Presbyterian Church.

He settled in South Beaver township about 1796.
