13. | Bartholomew COPPOCK, III (10.Margaret3, 2.Richard2, 1.Richard1) was born on 1 Jan 1682 in Marple, Chester, Pennsylvania, USA; died in Feb 1761 in West Chester, Chester, PA, USA. Notes:
This Bartholomew has a birth date of Oct. 1, 1681 in Elizabeth Harris' E-mail letter dated 9/8/95. (C-613) According to a second descendant, Rodger Smith, Bartholomew and Jacob Jonathan were twins. He was given the family bible and the journal of George Fox, the famous Quaker leader, in his father's will. Bartholomew owned land adjacent to his father's land in Springfield, Chester Co., PA in a deed dated Oct 13, 1709. (C-2136)
He and his wife Phebe deeded 373 acres to Henry Lewis in Marple, Chester Co., PA on Dec 26, 1711. This land formally belonged to Jonathan Taylor, deceased, which might give a clue to a possible first marriage for Phebe as her known name included Taylor. (C-2139)
He is supposedly listed in "Smith's Atlas of Early Grants" which shows his residence as Marple, Chester Co, PA in 1715. He is also listed "of Marple Twp." when his daughter Rebecca marries in 1744. He witnessed a will of William West of Springfield in Chester Co., PA in Feb of 1720. (C-2150)
