Robert THORNBURGH
- Born: Abt 1730
- Marriage: Ruth GARRIMAN on 3 May 1755 in Old Swedes Church
- Died: 21 Nov 1759 about age 29
Noted events in his life were:
• Will, 1759, Chester County, PA.
Robert's will was written 4 November 1759 in West Bradford, Chester County, and was proven 21 November 1759. Given his young age and the short time to probate it is assumed he probably died of an accident or what he knew was a fatal disease. The summary of his will is "Robert Thornborough of West Bradford. Nov. 4, 1759. Prove Date 21 Nov 1759. To mother Susanna Thornborough 1/3 of real and personal estate. To wife Ruth 1/3 of estate. To children Susanna and Ruth 1/3 of estate. Executor: William Liggett." This is the best evidence we have that Robert and Alice were the eldest children of Robert and Susanna. The executor named by Robert was the husband of his presumed sister Alice, married in 1751.
Robert married Ruth GARRIMAN on 3 May 1755 in Old Swedes Church.
