"To Gabriel Pickerell a tract of land purchased of Francis Elledge containing 350 acres adjoining to Arthur Kavanaugh being on the Reedy Run on the north side of Roanoke in Bertie Precinct, North Carolina, for the consideration of a horse in hand and five years care on the said land, also the joining of stocks remitting the one half as often as it shall be thought proper by my executrix. In case of failure in joining to halves I desire that 200 acres separate from the said Pickerell's plantation may rebound to my son Nathaniel." Info I found on mr. Pickerell: Gabriell Pickrell; 1704 rent rolls, 100 acres, King William Co., VA This particular JOHN BRADFORD was not an indentured servant. This is how myths/disinformation get going.... STICK to the documents. Becky Mosely

I know there was a Richard Bradford who came as an indentured servent to Virginia, but I thought he (Richard) arrived a few years later than 1696, more like 1720-30.

He could even be a cousin? I wonder if John is a descendant of the William Bradford, govenor of MA line; if so, there is lots written on that particular line.

John left 300 acres &c to Gabriell PICKRELL. He left land to other people as well that did not seem to be related. It seems that Gabriell came to VA in 1696 as an indentured worker to an Augustine Smith. Do you know why John Bradford would leave acreage to Gabriell? Any insight into this would be appreciated.

Last I know of Margaret Bradford, after her and James Harvey Mullins divorced, she remarried a man with the last name Lybarger. It would be great if we could find something more and this was the same person we are both looking for. I do have a picture of her headstone, a picture of her young and one of her older.

Hi lists I first started my family history research when the 1901 census was up and running properly and looked for my grandfather. I found a Herbert BRADFORD who was in hospital and thinking this was my grandfather ordered his birth certificate but he was too young. He was born on 30 April 1898. This evening after deciding to tidy some papers I found I had printed off a Memorial from the War Graves Commission site of a Private Herbert BRADFORD died on 4 November 1918 which gives his mother's name as Minnie PECK (formerly BRADFORD). I suddenly thought I wondered if this was the same Herbert and on checking the birth certificate it is. I feel as though I have lost a relative even though I don't know if he is one. And I feel quite sad.

This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: BRADFORD Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/3YF.2ACIB/1695.1.1 Message Board Post: Hi Cindy, We have a "Margaret Jane Bradford" who was born (we believe) November 23, 1874. We have thought she was born in West Virginia but an 1880 census has her with my great-grandparents in West Wheeling, Belmont Co., OHIO as was another sister, Elizabeth. That 1880 census is the last record I can find on our Margaret Bradford. Her sister, Martha Adeline Bradford, was my grandmother who was born May 13, 1883 in Triadelphia, OHIO COUNTY., WV and died November 18, 1971 in Washington, Washington Co., PA. Could there have been some confusion between Ohio state and Ohio "county"? Other than my grandmother, the only other Bradford I ever had contact with and remember (from my early childhood) is Grandma and Margaret Jane's brother, John Thomas Bradford who died in 1969. Unfortunately, there is no one left alive now to even ask. I have found a Bradford cousin in Texas who is as in the dark as I am. I am currently running searches of other census years. As of 1910, my Bradford family (including our elusive William Henry Bradford) was living in Triadelphia, Ohio Co., WV. My Grandma, her husband and 2 children were living next door and down the same street were other family members on the Malson side including another Bradford brother, Lewis Frank. However, our Margaret Jane Bradford wasn't with any of them. If she was already married this is undoubtedly why and without a married name, impossible to trace. I am hoping to find her in a 1900 census and will run census searches on James Mullins and see what I can come up with. Consistently in my search, I have found family members living with one another and next door or nearby, i.e. I was looking up my Grandma's first husband, found him in 1910 census and surprised to discover our Bradfords next door. Since your Margaret died in 1956 and you know where, possibly you can try to obtain a death certificate from that state's vital records. There could be information on it that might shed some light as to whether or not your Margaret and ours are one and the same. Feel free to contact me any time at my email address. Best regards, LeAnn McRoberts
