>From Book: History of Southwest Virginia by Summers published 1901 "The County Court of Washington County, in the year 1832, was composed of a very distinguished body of men, the fathers and grandfathers of many of the present generation, and it may be of interest to many persons to know the appearance and character of the members of that court, given by a writer who was personally acquainted with each of them and who was a very competent judge of men. " (Rev L.F.Cosby) ...... " Among the group of justices on the left, you see two brothers of large stature and strong features. They are of peculiar mould and utterly disregard the vain blandishments of the world, and deal only in realities. These are Major Abram and Captain Reuben Bradley." page 477 Not my line ,however I do find the descriptions fascinating. ~Paula~
