Husband of Mary Hollingsworth, one record, posted here, has marriage year as "About 1685". The U.S. & International marriage record, states two different years 1679 & 1682, the latter in Ireland.
I believe the 1682 year is correct.
U.S. & Canada Passenger records have his arrival year as 1682 to New Castle, Delaware with his wife Mary Hollingsworth and her father.

Mary remarried Randall Malin, after his passing.
Together they had at least 3 children: Elizabeth (B. Sept 7,1687, married Charles Booth and secondly Thomas Crabb).
Ann ( B.June 10, 1705, married Phillip Taylor) & Sarah(M. 1709-10 John Yearsley)
Dates for him are OS, passing 07mon/Sept 17/1689.

He was born about 1655 in Lisburn, Antrim, Ireland. He died in Upper Providence Twp, Chester Co, Pa, USA. He married Mary Hollingsworth, 28 Jun 1682 in Tamnaficarbet, Seagoe, Armagh, Ireland. He and Mary came to America in 1682 with Mary's father Valentine and settled near him in New Castle County, Delaware. His death date is listed in the Quaker records as 11 Mo. 30, 1688-9 (11mon/Jan 30/1688/9.
