"In the Tombstone records of North Carolina Hopewell Presbyterian Church, Mechlenberg (sic) Co., 1765 is found the Parrott family arms with a parrott for a crest 'Francis Brady, A friend to liberty and was privately slain by the enemy of the his country, 11-14-1780, age 37 years. His wife Abigail died 9-23-1817, 69 years.' Brady could have been of the Parrott descent through the female line; or his wife may have been of the family descent and he used her coat of arms.”

This stone is a reproduction of the original, which is now stored within the Hopewell Presbyterian Church. Needless to say, the report that this stone depicts the Pembrokeshire Perrot family seal is not correct. Photo by Paul D. Buckley, 2008. |
