Hi Margret, Yes there are some others in the UK researching BRADSHAW, although I must admit there appears to be very few of us ! I understood that my BRADSHAWs came from Lancashire and was also disheartened when I saw just how many of them appeared in the IGI ! However, I have since discovered that my G-Grandfather may have come from Staffordshire, UK . His name was Tom BRADSHAW and was born around 1867, and his parents (as far as I can tell) were Anne ??? and Frederick George BRADSHAW. Tom began his working life as a coach-builder before joining the Royal Horse Artilliary. He married Edith Louisa WILDING at Lewisham, LONDON in the 1890s and died in 1919. Is anyone researching any BRADSHAWs in Staffs ? Does any of this ring any bells with anyone ? Thanks, Neil
