Dear Linda:
"Ann Woodworth and George James declared their intentions of marriage at
Chester Monthly Meeting 6th months 27 and 7th month 26th 1698, and were,
doubtless, married soon after the last date. Their residence was in
Springfield Township, Chester (now Delaware) County, where George died in
1720. As executors of his will he appointed his wife, Anne, and
brother-in-law, Richard Woodward, of Bradford. The only Richard then of
Bradford was the above, son of Robert."
I don't know why it says "Ann Woodworth" instead of "Ann Woodward."

Linda ..... re: George JAMES married to Ann WOODWARD:
I have children for the family of George and Ann Woodward/Woodworth JAMES,
but not parent information. In the ref. below 'Early Church Records of
Delaware Co., PA' Ann is referenced as WOODWORTH.
The children I have are:
Sarah JAMES b 1699
Mary JAMES b 1702
Mordecai JAMES b 1705 d 1776 m 1727 Gainor LLOYD (2) 1736 Dinah CHURCHMAN
and (3) 1767 Susanna BUTCHER
Jane JAMES b 1707 m William HAYES
Hannah JAMES b 1711
Anne JAMES b 1714
Elizabeth JAMES b 1717
I have not included any birth date info. other than the year, as I believe
you will need to make the adjustment for dates prior to 1752 to reflect the
record keeping of day/mo/year....therefore making Jane's birthday to be
actually the 28th of November....as you can see, the references I have gives
the year at 1707, however.
I do have the 10 children of William and Jane James HAYES and some of them
carried down if this is your line and would like to have it.
