Job Harvey 1--Family, Marriages, Death

Evaluation of Job 1 Harvey



Marriages and children:
We believe that Job 1 had at least three wives: Mary Bethel, Martha Parker, and Rebecca Minshall. Our evidence for this is:

1. Job married Mary Bethel and had the following children (see #1):

Josiah born 12 Apr 1705
Joseph born 2 Mar 1707
Job born 24 Jan 1711. He married Hannh (see #2) and Elizabeth (see #3)
Benjamin born 25 Mar 1713
Mary born 29 Jul 1715. She married someone with last name of Hunt (See #5)


Mary Bethel died 20 Jul 1727 (See #6))


2. Job then married Martha Parker on 23 Mar 1741(See #7). She died 4 Feb 1745 (See #6)

3. Job then married Rebecca Minshall on 14 Jul 1748 (see #8). We don’t have a record of her death, but we know she was alive when Job made out his will in 1750/1 since she is mentioned (see #9).

Death:
Job died sometime in 1750/1 based on in his will (see #9 and #6)

Immigration:

We believe that Job Harvey 1, immigrated to Darby Chester Pennsylvania from Chesterfield Pennsylvania from England in 1702 (see #10)
