In 1681 Richard purchased 500 acres from William Penn's administration, to be laid out in Pennsylvania.

1024 William FEW (1599?- ) [7173]. Born 1599 (app), Market Lavington, Wiltshire. Marr Pez RIVERA 1648, Kennett, Chester County, Pennsylvania, U.S.A. Died Kennett, Chester County, Pennsylvania, U.S.A.

2048 Jeffery FEW (1575?- ) [12751]. Born 1575 (app).

4096 Unknown FEW (1550?- ) [12748]. Born 1550 (est).

It is generally considered that the FEW family originated from Wiltshire, UK, and the father of Jeffery, Thomas, Richard and Eydith Few is likely to be the first in the family since records began. His estimated date of birth is about 1550.

Records show that the 'original' Few's all lived in a group of nearby villages, and currently the connection between William Few 1599 of Market Lavington (who was the start of the American Few ancestry) and the Few's who remained in Wiltshire, is not known. Everything points to William possibly being the son of Jeffery Few c1575, however records show him as being born in the nearby village of Market Lavington and not Bishops Canning where Jeffery was born, but he could have moved - just a few miles away. A second brother, Thomas, married 3 years after William's birth so may not be a contender, and a third brother, Richard, had children born in Bishops Canning either side of William's birth date of 1599, so his family was less likely to have moved to Market Lavington.

For the purposes of creating 'a link' until more information is available, William is shown in this tree as the son of Jeffery c1575.

More research is needed.

513 Jane (Joan) WHITFIELD (1627-1674) [2231]. Born 1627, Market Lavington, Wiltshire. Died 24 Apr 1674, Market Lavington, Wiltshire.

Records show birth as 1627, 1629 and 1631 at either Market Lavington or Wedhampton, and marraige as 1650. All records show her as being married to Richard Few. Some records show her getting married in Garston, Lancashire but this is unlikely as she was born and died in Wiltshire.
