- He graduated from Hart Hall, Oxford University, 22 Feb 1627/8;[8] received his B.A. 3 Nov 1631.[9]
On February 22, 1627, Robert Bracewell, age 15, entered Oxford University, London, England.
Likely a loyalist to King Charles I who was executed by Puritans in 1649, Rev. Bracewell no doubt joined the company of Cavaliers and emigrated to Virginia. His first surviving record, dated 29 Apr 1650, was the Bennett-Webb agreement to which he testified.[10]
In 1653 he was chosen a Burgess from Isle of Wight County, but was suspended due to his being a clergyman, and therefore "unpresidentiall and may produce bad consequence."[11]
"The name of his wife is unknown, but it is possible he is the Robert Bracewell who married Faith Allen, 1 Apr 1642 at Edwinstowe, Nottinghamshire."[12]
Others say he married abt 1649 in Virginia Rebecca Izard[13]
He died 01 MAY 1668 in Isle of Wight, Isle of Wight, Virginia[14]
Second possible death place: Blackwater, Franklin, Virginia
