Well, there is at least me...I wished I knew all the ansewers. I think that there are about 10 list that I belong to are all on vacation, not sure. My Grandparents are from Wilkes County, N.C. 1787-1944. I have very ,,,very...good records on them. John who married Rachel Widom, John Who married Lucinda,(Cannot prove yet but close), William who marrried Jane Ferguson, John J. F. who married Kurturna Maltba, and my Netta Kate who died in Catawba county N. C. 1944. John(1) is suggested to be the son of Richard Bradley of Orange Co.His brothers were Laurance, William, James. Just in case I am boring you I will not continue but if you want someone to write I would also like it...I cannot put those early familys together either. When you have three brothers ,,9 months apart, that marry 9 months apart, and have the same naming pattern...welll...I have thought many times about just picking out the best line and claiming it,,,of course there is the famious dart board method, we also could put the names in a hat and draw..<smile>, I really wish (I started to say old researcher could give clues) but I am no spring chicken) so I will redo that, experience Bradley searchers could help us out a bit...I do not want to write any books etc but I sure would buy some if you folks could tell us about them...
