    3. Tommy Corder asked for data about Benjamin Bradley. Mr. Wendell Bradley of Indianapolis in his book "Bradley" referred to a book written by Arnold L. Bradley titled "The Bradley-Cocke and Related Lines". The following data comes from both books: Benjamin Bradley b 1790 d after 1860 married Margaret Campbell about 1816. They had the following children: Mary b @1818 married Elezer D. Webster Justin P. b @1819 married Caroline Mothershead Felix b 1820 married (1) unknown, (2) Sarah Volley Margaret b 1822 married Jacob Dye Susan Jane b 1824 married Raney Dye Catharine b 1828 married John H. Anderson Amphenomile b 1831 Josephine E. b 1835 Bazabel b 1836 Layton Green b 1838 Sources: 1850 and 1860 Monroe Co Census; Monroe Co Marriages Benjamin Bradley was the son of Benjamin C. Bradley b @1760 d1824KY married Susan MaryJones @1787. Children: Sally b 1788 married Andrew McFadden Benjamin b1790 married Margaret (Peggy) Campbell Fanny b@1792 married Peter Austin Littleton b@1794 married Ann Lewis Polly b1797 married (1) David Talley (2) ? Crouch James b@1799 married Elizabeth Austin Maria b@1801 married (1) Robert Austin (2) ? Wiltshire John b@1804 Sources: Woodford KY marriages and researchers; Christian Co, KY marriages; 1850 Christian Co census Benjamin C. Bradley is believed to be the son of Robert Bradley b @1721 d@1786 and Ann Williams. However, Wendell Bradley states in his book that there were two other Robert Bradleys in Orange Co, VA, at this same time. One Robert Bradley does list Benjamin in his will in St. Thomas Parish, Bk. 3 page 112. This Robert Bradley is believed to be the son of John Bradley b 1676 Northumberland Co,VA d 1762 Caroline Co,VA married Mary Rhodes. John Bradley is believed to be the son of Robert Bradley b @1636 England, d before 1680 and his wife Ann Bradshaw. These last two generations certainly need further research. The following areas of search are listed in Wendell Bradley's book: Virginia Colonial Abstracts, Vol 19 and 20; Northumberland Co,VA, records; Middlesex Co, VA, records; Caroline Co,VA, Culpeper Co, VA and Orange Co, VA, records. Good luck with your hunting! Jane Sumpter Malone-George
