- "Henrico County, Virginia Deeds 1677-1705" by Benjamin B. Weisiger III, 1996, pg. 104
Wills Deeds Etc. 1697-1704:
p.73 Edward Jones and Mary his wife for 5,600 lbs. tobacco made over to John Pleasants 180 acres, part of land which was their brother Field's, by deed of mortgage 4 April 1694. Mortgage has not been paid, and Pleasants sells said land to Gilly Groomarrin for 5,500 lbs. tobacco, reserving mineral rights.
14 March 1697/8
Wit: Fra. Reeve, ELIZABETH BRADSHAW
Signed: John Pleasants Recorded 1 April 1698
This is the only reference I can find for Elizabeth Bradshaw linking her to the Pleasants family so far. There is a strong inference here in so far as this transaction has nothing to do with her other than the possibility that she was related to John Pleasants. This is still being checked. There is a researcher who says that his will has the signature of Elizabeth Bradshaw on it, but I can find no proof of that so far.
There is also the possibility that her last name was JONES or even GROOMARRIN since she was witnessing this deed.
