Eleanor Potts Roberts has limited records and of interest is the comments written on her husband's death record by Abington MM; which stated; records or activity before 1747, can NOT be found.


Eleanor Potts Roberts was a daughter, a wife and a mother. Her husband Thomas Roberts Jr., and father-in-law Thomas Roberts were connected to Germantown by land deeds.

Eleanor Potts was one of the five orphaned children of John Potts Jr. and born abt. 1681 in Wales; apparently of age upon arrival as she was not apprenticed out. She married Thomas Roberts Sr on 1mo/Mar 26, 1705, at Abington Mtg; had 5 children.

Their children: Thomas, John, Mary, Sarah and Thomas (3), stated in Biographical Annals of Montgomery County, vol 2 pg. 345.

A detailed bio of her father John Potts Jr, written by Claudia-Davenport Sullivan, details his life, children, (Eleanor) along with prior generations.

A date of death on his memorial for Eleanor was given as 3mo 26, 1766, in Bristol Twp (now defunct), Philadelphia, PA.


Updated memorial to date of death unknown.

Eleanors death occurred prior to the second marriage of Thomas Jr. to Rachel Livezey, in 1734. This marriage recorded in Abington MM, with Society approval.


Unable to locate records for her death at this time, needs more research.

Her memorial fits into the category of unknown burial.
