Surname: BRELSFORD, DAVIS, ENGLE, HELLINGS
-------------------------

Ray, I'm interested in learning about all of these Bucks County BRELSFORDs,
since I think it is the best way to identify my own.

Are you sure that your Rachel was the daughter of Mary MARTIN? That's a
new name to me. I'm told that one Isaac (b ca 1716/1720, son of William?)
is listed in The Brelsford Family of Bucks County as being married to
Susannah.
I find another Isaac (possibly his son and a brother to Rachel?) married
Phoebe WHARTON in 1781.

In case you don't have it, here is the marriage record for Rachel and Jesse
PALMER:

Marriages from the Docket of Isaac Hicks, Justice of the Peace, Bucks Co,
1773-1824.
13 March 1774. Jessee PALMER of lower Makefield tp., yeoman, and Rachel
BRELSFORD of same place, daughter of Isaac BRELSFORD.

(I found these records in a book, but have temporarily misplaced my source
notes. I believe it was either Early Pennsylvania Marriages or Marriage
Bonds in the State Library, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.)
