Notes on George Bradshaw:

The actual death date of George Bradshaw is unknown, but the lease expired in 1767 which would indicate that all three "Lives"

were deceased.

Some of the church records are only fragments of a page which has resulted in two of George's sons names not being recorded.

First Lisburn Presbyterian Church – Country List Record of Seat Lists and Pew Rents 1764 – 1824.

The records differentiated between persons living in the Town and Country. (PRONI – mic 1P/159/10)

1767          Thomas Bradshaw 4 payments of 2s. 3d.(4 payments continue until 1776)

                   John Bradshaw no payments (was John the first son of George?)

1769           John Bradshaw no payments - 2/forfeits (possibly unable to attend/death)

1776           Thomas Bradshaw paid 1^st quarterly 2s/3d in February.

1777           Thomas Bradshaw made no payments which also coincides with his death on 7^th September 1777

                   The Pew holder’s name changed to George Bradshaw, which was scored out and overwritten with Christopher Bradshaw.

In the early Lisburn Presbyterian Church records, the name Bradshaw had several spelling variations; Bratchy; Bratchie; Bradshey:

Brachey & Broadshaw.  Depending on the person writing the record, it is therefore reasonable to assume that the surname is

Bradshaw.
