    • Military Service: Was listed in the Militia of 1715 as a private

    Notes:

    Name:
    He was apparently the Captain of the West Division, Richmond County, Militia in 1738, and a member of the Expedition to Canada in 1746/7, resulting in his untimely end.

    Nathaniel Britton, 'being in good health' made his will dated July 2, 1746, probated Feb. 24, 1746/7, witnessed by Benjamin Britton, at al., wherein he stated that he was resolved to 'adventure on the present expedition against Kenede (Canada), now in the possession of the french', and giving to his wife, Frances, his 'house and lot in Richmond County for the support of my family.' He mentioned his ownership of lots in Somerset County, NJ.

    The names of any children have not been recovered.

    Family/Spouse: Frances ?. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]


  2. 3.  Richard BRITTON Descendancy chart to this point (1.Nathaniel1) was born about 1689 in Staten Island, New York.

  3. 4.  Nicholas BRITTON Descendancy chart to this point (1.Nathaniel1) was born about 1695.

  4. 5.  Abigail BRITTON Descendancy chart to this point (1.Nathaniel1) was born about 1698 in Staten Island, New York.

  5. 6.  Abraham BRITTON Descendancy chart to this point (1.Nathaniel1) died before 1 Jun 1729.

    Notes:

    Name:
    Abraham Britton, son of Nathaniel Britton, died before June 1, 1729, the date of his father's will.

    The birth of Abraham years before 1729, and the fact of his death are established. He may possibly have been born between 1690 and 1700. He would naturally have chosen to be married at the Presbyterian Church where his father and brother were acting as officials.

    The name, Abraham, first appeared here in the Britton family, the third generation in the line of Nathaniel. It was not used in those times by William or his progeny.

    Abraham's life was short - too brief to have made an auspicious record, or to have accumulated property to be administered at his death. It is evident, however, that he married and left a minor son: Nathaniel.
