• Notes

  Prince George County Deed Bk page 1713 - 28, p. 994. William Bressie was a witness to a deed of Francis Bressie to William Tucker 8 Oct. 1726. Brunswick Order Bk. 2, p. 51. William Bressie of Prince George Co. rebuilt the lower Coutbank Bridge over nottoway River in 1741. 1726. Francis Bressie received a patent of land in Prince George Co. (note he was earlier in Elizabeth City Co.), which he subsequently deeded to others: 8 Aug. 1726, 500a to Henry Maynard of Elizabeth City Co.; 8 Oct. 1726, 200a to John Manson of Elizabeth City Co.; 18 Oct. 1726, 200a to William Tucker of Elizabeth City Co. (this last deed witnessed by William Bressie) (Pr. Geo. Co. deeds). [This latter William Bressie was likely a brother of Francis and son of William of Warwick Co.] 1741. William Bressie of Prince George Co. appointed to rebuild the lower Coutbank Bridge over the Nottaway River (Brunswick Co. Order Bk. 2, p. 51). [Apparently the son, William Bressie. The elder William Bressie of Warwick would likely have been too old to rebuild a bridge by this date.] Information on the children in this family was obtained from the Bracey GENFORUM page posted by J. Daniel Mahar and Annette Williams. Some people say that these children, except for Randolph (Randal) and Jane, should be the children of Francis Bracey and Elizabeth.
