In Reply to: Zacheus Kay (Key), [b.1725], Chester and Lancaster Counties, PA by Steve Kay of 2187

I'm not having much luck this morning. Zacheus is mentioned in the HISTORY OF CHESTER COUNTY PA, by Futhey and Cope, only as a landowner in 1774 Kennet. He did not leave a will, and was not mentioned in any area wills up to around 1835, which is when my CD of PA wills stops. (nothing for George Key/Kay,either) I'm including the only thing for Brabson I found for Lanc, Chester or other surrounding counties, just in case it fits later (not a will but there are adm. papers on file) ;


March 2, 1792 Lanc. co....BRABSON, THOMAS Children: Thomas, John, Precilla and Mary.Ex. John Brabson and Thomas Brabson. Little Britton Twp.

Brabson is an unusual name and I did find a John Brabson, listed as a freeman in East Nottingham, 1722. I checked the 1765 Chester Archives, and the only Key/Kays are Moses and Allin.....Moses had a large family, and was in the area in the early 1700s so this might be something you'd want to follow up on. There were no Brabsons in the index.
