My research indicates that Bradley is an anglicized version of the Irish clan name O'BRALLAGHAN. Does this match what others know? I find Bradleys in both Ireland and England. My supposition has been that Ireland is the original homeland of the Bradleys. Is this accurate? BTW, the LDS's Ancestral File is now online at http://familysearch.org/. Almost as good as the DOS version at their Family History Centers.
