    1754 · Seven Years' War

    Age 24

    The Seven Years' War began as a North American conflict then stretched between England and France. England, along with allies, battled France in America, India, and Europe, making it arguably the first global war. The conflict ended with the signing of the Treaty of Paris in 1763 and England was victorious. The Seven Years' war ultimately led to discontent in the colonies and the American Revolution.

    Name Meaning

    English: habitational name, usually from Bredbury (Cheshire), occasionally perhaps from Bradbury (Durham), although evidence for the latter origin is yet to be found. Both placenames meant ‘stronghold or manor house built with planks’, from Old English bred ‘board’ + burg in the dative case form byrig.
