Mary (Smith) Bradhurst (1753-1841)
Mrs Mary (Smith) Bradhurst
Her portrait shown here was supposed to be drawn by her brother, James Smith, an artist who lived in Florence, Italy. She was a first cousin of Theodosia Bartow who married Aaron Burr, but politically and personally the Bradhursts were allied to Hamilton, so much so that Mary's husband fought a duel with Burr before the famous encounter. She and her husband lived at Pinehurst and had five children.
