Eskilsson, and died around 1716 in chester.

I hope I have everything straight...it's kind of hard to do this "all of a
piece" so to speak. I would encourage you to do some reading on the Swedish
settlement of Pa, and the early Quakers, both of which are in your
families......they're both so intresting!
There is more on the Phipps (the early stuff is not documented by me) and
more on the woodyears,but this ought to keep you busy for now!
