From a book I have published in 1928 titled the Robert Jeffries Family in America "1656-1928" your Alice sounds like one of Roberts son's daughter.Robert came to America in 1681, from Wiltshire, England, and settled in Chester Co. PA, in the township of East Bradford....He married Jane Chandler also from Marlborough, England.They had 12 children, namely George, John, William, James, Robert, Thomas, Benjamin, Patience, Charity, Jane, Anne, and Mary.From what it states in this book I have Patience Jeffries married Henry Betterton in 1708.Charity first married John Evans in 1710; secon, married John Cope in 1721.William married Elizabeth Neild.He died at the old homestead during the Revolutionary War.James married Elizabeth Carter.He settled near the family seat, and died in 1743.George married Ldia Webb.He died in 1763.Jane married Joseph Skeen.Anne married Alexander Duncan.Mary married Thomas Temple.Benjamin married Prudence Claypoole.Robert married ?Thomas married ?John married ?From the dates and location you give, it would seem that Alice would be the grandaughter of Robert Jeffries....Who by the way is my great, great, great, great, great, great, Grandfather......
