Kelly, Thank you for replying to my query. I think I may have the Elanor
Braddock Will you cite and I will paste it below. However there seems to be
more than one Eleanor who married a Braddock and maybe this one is a
different one. I really appreciate your help and wonder if you have run
into a Raphael Braddock who may have died in Washington County in about
1803?
