For evidence of John Bradford’s birth year, see McKey, 8: 66 (19 Feb 1691/92 court), where it is recorded that John chose Thomas Budd as his guardian. Children were allowed to choose their guardians upon arriving at the age of 15, so 1677 should be a reliable upper limit to the possible range of years in which John was born. See also McKey, 9: 38 (8 Oct 1698 court), where John’s release to his brother William for the lands at Bradford’s Neck is noted. To sign a legal instrument, one had to be at least 21, which again gives 1677 as a reliable limit to John’s probable birth year. If it is certain that John was not born after 1677, his release to William hints that he was probably not born much before 1677. William’s need for a release from his brother John would have been operative ever since their father’s death in 1691 and it is likely that William was only waiting until John turned 21 to actually obtain the release. For further support for a birth year of 1677 see McKey, 9: 24 (7 April 1698 court), in which it is mentioned that Capt. Thomas Welburne brought a suit at the complaint of John Bradford. Since, one could not sue or be sued until one reached the age of 21 (for which see McKee, 8: 107), it is likely that John was not 21 when the suit was brought. It therefore seems likely that John turned 21 at some point after Welbourne’s suit, but before John’s release to his brother William. This might indicate that his birth fell sometime between April and October of 1677, but it is unclear when precisely Welbourne initiated the suit. 245.Based on search of Nugent, Vols. 1-2. 246.Nugent, 2: 158. 247.Bruce, Social Life, 115. 248.McKey, 6: 49. 249.McKey, 1: 96. * * * * * 1678-1690 Page 63 of 74 Copyright 2008 Adam M.
