PREFACE.
It was nearly forty years ago that the late Johx Merrill
Bradbury, of Ipswich, Mass., began to collect materials for a
Genealogy of the Bradbury Family. That his j^m-pose was to
make it one of the most complete and exhaustive family histories
ever published, is abundantly shown by his correspondence, and
had he lived there is little doubt that his intentions would have
been fully carried into effect. But his health failed and death
supervened before his self-imposed task was half accomplished.
He died nearly fifteen years ago, and since that time until quite
recently, his collections have remained undisturbed in the hands
of his executor.
The venerable Hon. James \V. Bradbury, of Augusta, had
been for sometime intending to have compiled a limited sketch of
his family, embracing only his own line, but after more mature
deliberation and a correspondence with the executor of the late
John M. Bradbury's will, who cheerfully offered to place the
collections of his brother at his disposal, Mr. Bradbury concluded
to modify his first intention so far as to utilize all the material
attainable, with certain limitations as to the time of publishing
the work. The expense of compiling and making additions
within reasonable limits, is borne entirely by Mr. Bradbury, while
it is hoped that the sale of books will be sufficient to meet the
cost of publication.
The late Captain "William F. Goodwin, of the United States
army, who was connected with the Bradbury family, on the
maternal side, was also interested in the history of his ancestors,
and had collected more or less material bearing upon the subject,
a portion of which — that relating to the York County families of
this name — had been printed in Dawson's Historical Magazine.
The extent of Capt. Goodwin's collections, and what disposition
he intended to make of them had he lived, are entirely unknown
to the compiler. The printed portion is all that has been
accessible to him.
6 PEEFACE.
After the deatli of Capt. Goodwin, there was some correspon-
dence between his family and the late John M. Bradbiuy, looking
to a nnion of the two collections, and the only obstacle in the
way appeai'ed to be the unsettled condition of Mr. Goodwin's
estate, but nothing was accomplished before Mr. Bradbury's
death. In all probability the larger portion of the Goodwin
material is duplicated in the collections of Mr. Bradbury, since the
sources of information were equally open to each, while both
were able and industrious investigators, and enthusiastic in the
woi'k they had taken in hand.
The compiler has been able to fill up many important omissions
in the way of names and dates, and has added a considerable
number of families, though none prior to the sixth generation.
The personal sketches and notes on allied families, are all the
work of the compiler, and also the arrangement of the entire
materials. In its incomi)lete state, the collections of Mr. Brad-
bury are meager in personal history, being confined mostly to
names and dates, while that portion of his correspondence which
has come into the compiler's hands, throws but little additional
light upon the personnel of the family. This defect has been
remedied so far as has been possible in the brief time allowed;
but very many of Mr. Bradbury's correspondents have gone to
join him, while their families have grown \\\^, are scattered abroad
and are not easily accessil)le.
As a whole, the work as published is unfinished, and in some
directions only fragmentary, but it contains valuable material
representing no little labor and expense, and some future repre-
sentative of the family may be induced to utilize it for the pro-
duction of a more complete and comprehensive work. It is not
claimed by the compiler that the work is free from errors. Accu-
racy in a work of this kind would be a novelty indeed, but it is
hoped that not more than the usual number of mistakes will be
found herein. Such as it is, the work is respectfully submitted to
the charitable and discriminating consideration of those who are
interested in its contents.

BRADBURY MEMORIAL.
THE BRADBURY FAMILY IN ENGLAND.
The name Bradbury is of Saxon origin, and of
the class styled "■local." Its components are Brady
meaning broad, and Bury, which is variously defined,
as a house, a hill, a domain, and a town. It is found
variously spelled in English records, as Bradherrie,
Bradherrye, Bradberry and Bradbury. The latter is
the orthography adopted by the emigrant Thomas, and
followed by his descendants generally. Unlike most
local names, it never had a wide diffusion in England,
and tracing it back through two centuries previous to
the settlement of this country, it seems to have nar-
rowed its limits and finally to have confined itself to a
single parish in Derbyshire. The radiating point
seems to have been Ollerset in the parish of Glossop,
in the northed}^ part of the county of Derby. No
mention of the name has been found prior to 1433,
when there were living among the gentry at Ollerset,
Roger de Bradbury and Rodolphus de Bradbury. The
connection between these two persons is not known,
nor the length of the time they had resided at Ollerset.
But the interest of the American Bradburys centers
in the line of which Robert is the head, and of whom

but little is known. "We know that he must have been
born as early as 1400, that he lived at Ollerset, and
that he married a daughter of Robert Davenport (writ-
ten also Damporte), and that he had a son William,
who settled at Braughing, county of Hertfordshire,
and married Margaret, daughter of Greoffry Rokell,
spelled also Rock hill. From him are said and believed
to have sprung the Bradburys of Littlebury and Wick-
ham Bonhunt, generally written at the present day,
Wicken Bonant. They were a landed family, and from
the Herald's Visitations and Inquisitions post mortem,
quite easily traced, though the pedigrees that have
been constructed and in some cases printed, are
strangel}^ unlike. In the report of the Visitation in
Essex in 1558, William Bradbury, said to have mar-
ried Jane or Joan, daughter of Sir John Fitzwilliam
and widow of Thomas Bendish or Bendyshe, is placed
at the head of the line ; while in that of 1612, and also
the pedigree published in the East Anglian in 1862,
the head of the family is given to Sir Thomas Brad-
^ bury who was Lord-Mayor of London in 1509, and
died while in office. The fallacy of both these pedi-
grees is shown in the fact that William Bradbury of
Braughing was only ten years of age when Joan,
widow of Thomas Bendish died, while Sir Thomas
Bradbury died without issue, and William Bradbury,
son of his brother Robert, was his heir. It also states
what is probably correct, that William Bradbury was
afterward of Littlebury, and " descended from ye Brad-
burys of Ollerset in ye West Country," etc.
BBADBURY MEMOBIAL. 9
In the Visitation of Hertfordshire in 1634, Robert
Bradbur\^ of Ollerset, county of Derby, is made the
head of the family and the father of Sir Thomas.
Now while absolute reliance cannot be placed upon
pedigrees based upon the reports of these Visitations,
j'et it is the best and only evidence that can be obtained
without original research, and is probably in the main
correct. Ro)jert Bradbury must have flourished in the
time of King Henry the Sixth, and is the eai'liest an-
cestor of the family that can be relied upon with any
degree of certainty. The pedigree here given is based
upon the reports of the several Herald's Visitations,
upon probate records and other public documents, and
must be taken for what it is worth. The late Captain
William F. Goodwin, whose mother was a Bradburj',
employed Miss Harriet Bainbridge, then considered a
reliable English genealogist, to inquire into the Brad-
bury pedigree, and she furnished him with one which
she claimed was the result of her own original investi-
gation, but which is now known to be incorrect in
several essential points. There are professional gene-
alogists in England who will write up a pedigree and
furnish a coat of arms for any one who is able and
willing to pay for them, and their customers are, for
the most part, Americans. There are doubtless those
who do honest work, but a majority of them are cheats,
and fill their orders without regard to facts.
The branch of the Bradbury family from which the
New England family claim their descent, settled at
Wicken Bonant in the county of Essex, about the year
1560, and a brief sketch of this parish is compiled

largely from the number of the East Anglian, already
referred to, and published in London in July, 1862.
This number not only gives an account of the parish,
but gives pedigrees of the Barlee and Bradbury fami-
lies, the latter of which, so far as it appears to be cor-
rect, is made the basis of the pedigrees here given of
the English families of Bradbury. The parish of Wick-
en Bonant is small, containing only eight hundred and
forty-one acres, and less than two hundred persons. It
lies in one of those long, winding valleys leading up
to the backbone of the high ground which parts the
tributaries of the Lea and the Cam, The subsoil is of
chalk which, with occasional heads of gravel, crops up
to the surface in the lower grounds. The uplands of this
and the surrounding parishes are overlaid with a strong
clay of considerable depth, which renders the air cold
and damp, and considerably i-etards agricultural opera-
tions. A winter brook, which rapidly floods after rain,
rises in the adjoining parish of Arkesden, to which it
gives a name, and passing through the whole length
of the parish it meets with some copious springs in the
meadow^s adjoining Newport, and becomes a tributary
of the Cam.
In ancient times the parish of Wicken was equally
divided between wood and arable land. From Dooms-
day-book it appears that it then contained four carii-
catce, and as much arable land as four ploughs would
till in a year, beside wood for one hundred hogs. At
the present time there is hardly any wood remaining,
and but little pasture. The name has had various
12 BRADBURY MEMORIAL.
spellings. In Doomsday-book it is called Wica. In
the court rolls of the Hall in the time of Edward the
Second, it is called Wykes, and half a century after it
was called Wvken. These are doubtless variations of
Wickham which are still retained in official documents.
The addition of Bonhunt, from one of the manors of
the parish, is to distinguish it from Wickham St. Paul
and Wickham Bishops, both of which are in the same
county of Essex. From the earliest times there ap-
pear to have been two manors, that of Wicken or
Wickham, and tliat of Bonhunt or Bonant. Both of
these are mentioned in Doomsday-book. They were
united in the sixteenth century, and since then have
been reckoned as one. In Doomsday-book, the Hall
is given as in the possession of Gilbert, son of Thorold,
and after him in that of Sexius, a freeman. In 1446,
it was in the Barlee family and was sold hy William
Barlee to Robert Chatterton, Esq., who in turn sold it
to the Bradbury family. Precisely when this transfer
was made is not known, but Matthew Bradl^ury was
Lord of Wicken at the time of his death in 1587, and
probably bought it in 1557. It continued in the hands
of the Bradburys through several generations and
until the early part of the eighteenth century, when,
in default of male issue, Dorinda, daughter of Matthew
Bradbury, Esq., carried it in marriage to Joseph
Sharpe, Esq. He sold, with the exception of what is
now called the Brick House, with about a hundred acres
of land to John Hetherington, Esq., Avho sold it to
Thomas Coventry, Esq., who in the beginning of this
BRADBURY MEMORIAL. 13
century sold to Joseph Smith, Esq., of Shortgrove in
Newport, and in 1862 it was in possession of his son
Wilham Charles Smith, Esq., of Shortgrove.
The Brick House, as it has always been called, was
built b}' William Bradbury, who died in 1622, for his
son Wymond Bradbury, and continued in occupation
of the second-branch family till, at their extinction, it
reverted with the Hall to Mr. Sharpe. When he sold
the Hall, it was his intention to have kept and resided
in the Brick House, but the mortgages upon the Hall
proving to be beyond its value, Brick House together
with its one hundred acres was mortsrao'ed for twelve
hundred pounds in order to carry out the sale of the
remainder. In consequence of this arrangement Brick
House was held under mortgage by John Martin, Esq.,
banker of Lombard street, and it continued to be so
held by his son and grandson till Joseph Martin came
into possession of it in the early part of the present
century. Brick House is of a picturesque structure
with ornamental gables, and was formerly adorned
with statues of which some remain in a mutilated
state. The arms of Bradbury are still over the door.
The Hall, now a farm-house, adjoins the church. It^
is a timber structure of the early part of the sixteenth
century, with picturesque chimneys. With the Hall
was once another farm called the Wood, but now it is
known as Howland's farm, from a tenant who occu-
pied it.
The manor house of Bonhunt is situated half a mile
eastward of the church. We first hear of it in Dooms-
14 nnADBURY MEMORIAL.
day-book, wlien it was in possession of a freeman
named Aluric, and afterward in the hands of a man
named SaisseUne. No farther mention is made of it
nntil 1341, when John Flambard of Bonhnnt had a
license to endow St. Leonard's Hospital at Newport,
that the brethren might find him a chaplain to say
mass for his sonl within his manor of Bonhunt, in the
chapel of St. Helen. After John Flambard. the manor
of Bonhnnt came to the Greene family, and continued
with them from 1437 till 1580. when it was purchased
by the Bradburys. They soon after sold it to the
Nightingales of Newj^ort, from whom it passed to the
Turners of Quendon. In 1717, John Turner, Esq.,
sold it with (q^uendon Hall, to John Maurice, Esq., of
Walthamstow, whose Avidow sold it to Joseph Cran-
iner, Esq. From Cranmer it passed to his son Henrj^,
and sujjsequently it came to Henry Webb, Esq., at
whose death it reverted to the representative of the
Cranmers.
The church at Wicken Bonant, called St. Margaret,
orig-iuallv dated from the middle of the eleventh cen-
tury, but the onh^ relic of this date now remaining is
a plain and square, massive Norman font, standing on
a central and four corner pillars, also square. Toward
the close of the twelfth century, the church was in
great part rebuilt. With the exception of a porch,
parti V rubble and partly wood of the sixteenth century,
nothing more appears to have been done to the church
till early in the eighteenth century, when the tower
was removed, and a small wooden cot placed over the

west gable of the nave to hold the bells. The church
was restored and m part rebuilt in 1858-59, at the cost
of J(jhn Sperling, Esq., of Kensington, the patron of
the living. At present the church consists of the orig-
inal English chancel restored, to which a new nave,
south porcli and tower have been added in the decora-
tive style. The whole of the windows are of painted
glass, and represent mostly Bible characters. The
nave, which is filled with open seats, has a stone pul-
pit, while the Norman font occupies its ancient place,
and has been raised two steps and supplied with a
cover. Externally, the belfry stage of the tower is
very beautiful, having eight large traceried windows.
The whole is capped by a stone broach spire, rising to
a height of over ninety feet. In the church are no
monuments earlier than those of the Bradburys, which
are as follows : —
I. A monument against the north wall of the chancel, sur-
mounted by the arms of Bradbury, inscribed : —
" Beneath this stone lies interred the body of John Bradbury,
of the Inner Temple, Gent, eldest son of Francis Bradbury, Esq.,
Gent, and Anne his wife, who departed this life June 11-1693,
aged 25 years."
" Beneath this stone lies interred the body of Francis Bradbury
of Clifford's Inn, Gent, second son of Francis Bradbury, Gent,
and Anne his wife, who departed this life June 15, a. d. 1695,
aged 24 years."
"Beneath this stone lies interred the body of Anne Barrell,
wife of John Barrell of Clifford's Inn, Gent, and daughter of
Francis Bradbury and Anne his wife, who departed this life Jan-
uary 21-1677, aged 26 years."

II. On an elaborately sculptured monument by Scheemakers,
against the south wall of the chancel, also with the arms of
Bradbury : —
" Near this place lies buried the body of that hopeful youth,
John James Bradbury, Gent, the son and heir apparent of Mat-
thew Bradbury of this parish, Esquire, and Mary his wife, who
departed this life Nov. 27, 1731, aged 10 years."
III. On a monument within the tower, is the following : —

There are other monuments within the church, all of more
recent date than the above, and represent the families that suc-
ceeded the Bradburys at Wicken Bonant. A monument to Jamea
Pollitt, Esq., and Hannah his wife, who was a sister of Mrs.
Joseph Martin, are among others.
The Registers of the church begin in 1598, and with
the exception of a few years at the beginning of the
present century, have been well kept. They contain
nothing remarkable except the dates of the Bradbury
family, which afford material aid in arranging their
pedigree. Among other entries the following is of
interest : —
Mr. William Bradbury, Lord of Wicken, died upon St. Ad-
drews dale at night, about xij of the clock, November ye last,
and was buried uppon ye seconde of December, 1622, and was
laid under the high altar in ye chancel on ye southe side whose

The Rectory was originally on the north side of the
churchyard, but having been burned down in 1590, it
was not rebuilt on that side, but a house and two acres
of freehold ground belonging to the Bradbury family,
were granted to the Rectory by way of exchange.
This parish was within the diocese of London, and dis-
tant therefrom about forty-five miles.

In 1868, Mr. John Merrill Bradbury of Ipswich, who
with his wife was making the tour of Europe, visited
Wicken Bonant where his emigrant ancestor is sup-
posed to have been born. Concerning this visit Mr.
Bradbury wrote to a friend : " My visit to Wicken
Bonant was the pleasantest experience I have had in
20 BRADBURY MEMORIAL.
England. The rector was away on a vacation, and I
did not therefore see the registers, which would have
been a gratification, and I was indebted to the church-
warden's wife for admission to the church. It is a
small church and the addition made to it by Mr. Sper-
ling, the late rector, has not improved its proportions.
Of course the surfaces, internal and external, are new,
and there is nothing to remind the visitor of its age,
except a mural tablet in the chancel, date of 1697, and
the square font standing on five square supports which
is a veritable piece of antiquity. Undoubtedly Thomas
Bradbury, supposed to be the emigrant, was baptized
at this font.
" From the church our conductress guided us to the
Brick House, where we were most cordially received
by its proprietor, Mr. John PoUitt. He took us through
the old mansion, pointing out the alterations and addi-
tions which have been made, giving us its traditions
and history. He also showed us over the grounds
which are well laid out and nicely kept, and took us
to points where we could get the best views of the
house and its surroundings, as well as the village
generally."
A letter written in London in 1870, says : " The
Bradbury Brick House at Wicken Bonant is forty-five
miles from London. It was built by William Bradbury
who died in 1622, for his second son Wymond Brad-
bury, and it continued in that branch until it became
extinct. Mr. Joseph Martin then owned it until the

last two years. At his demise it went to his son-in-law,
Mr. John Pollitt, who now resides there."
Mrs. C. W. Bradbury of Winchester, Mass., has
visited the ancestral home of the Bradburys at Wicken
Bonant and writes : " By the kind hospitality of the
occupant of the mansion called the Brick House, I
made my headquarters there for the day, while taking
excursions to the parish church and to the church at
Clavering. But my stay was limited to one day, and
that day was in the month of November, 1877. Dark-
ness filled every corner, and I had to trust to hearsay
as to what was inscribed on the monumental slabs. I
was able to obtain copies of the publication called the
East Anglian, devoted to antiquities, folk-lore, etc., in
which is an article written by the sometime rector,
describing the church, and giving some account of the
Bradbury family."
The parish of Wicken Bonant just briefly described,
is supposed to have been the birth-place of that Thomas
Bradbury who, while a young man, came to the Dis-
trict of Maine as early as 1634, as the agent of Sir
Ferdinando Gorges, and is the common ancestor of the
Bradburys of New England. It would be highly gratr
ifying to be able to state positively that Thomas Brad-
bury who came to New England was the identical
Thomas who was baptized in the ancient Norman font,
in the church of St. Margaret, in the parish of Wicken
Bonant, February 28, 1610-11. It is true, the evidence
is such as to remove all reasonable doubt, and such as
to give great interest in the little parish of Wicken in
BRADBURY MEMORIAL. 23
Esse x, to the Bradbury families of the United States.
The evidence in favor of the generally accepted theory
may ]>e briefly summarized as follows : The parish reg-
ister of Wicken Bonant shows that a Thomas Bradbury
was baptized there on the last day of February, 1610-
11; and as his family had laiided property, it is easy to
trace his pedigree by the Herald's Visitations. This
Thomas Bradbury is not mentioned in English records
after his baptism. So far as is known, Thomas Brad-
bury of York and Salisbury, was the only one of the
name that ever came to New England, and as none of
his family came with him, it is presumed that he was
of age ; and on the score of age, there is nothing in-
compatible with the idea that Thomas of Wicken and
Thomas of York were the same. That the latter was a
young man of ability and well educated, the records
abundantly prove. He was married in 1636, which
was at a proper age, provided he was the young man
from Wicken, and died in 1695, at a good old age.
Unfortunately his age at death is nowhere stated, a cir-
cumstance that deprives us of important corroborative
evidence. It was usual in the period in which he lived
for persons making affidavits to be recorded to state
their ages, but in the several sworn statements given
by Mr. Bradbury, on file in Essex County records, no
one has been found in which liis age is stated.
Another strong point in the chain of evidence is
found in the family names. Every genealogist knows
that this is a pointer that rarely deceives. The father
of Thomas of Wicken was named Wyinond, a very
24 BRADBURY MEMOIilAL.
iinusual nanie, and the only person found so named in
the Bradbm-y pe(Ugrees that have been collected. Now
it is a fact that Thomas of York and Salisbury named his
first-born son Wymond, and it is also a fact that it was
the usual practice in those days to name the oldest son
either for his father or grandfather. If he did not
name the child for his father, for whom did he name
him ? Not for any of the mother's relatives, and so
far as the compiler is aware this name at that time had
been Ijorne by no other 2)erson in New England. The
mother of Thomas of Wicken was named Elisabeth,
and she had children William, Thomas, Jane and Ann,
names all of which reappear in the family of Thomas
Bradbury of Agamenticus and Salisbury. While all
this does not furnish positive evidence of the identity
of the two persons, it approaches so nearly to it that
the compiler fully believes it, and feels himself justified
in assuming it to be so.
It has already been stated that in the pedigrees pub-
lished in England, based upon the Herald's Visitations,
there are several discrepancies, and of course some
mistakes. The pedigree is certainly wrong which
makes Sir Thomas Bradbury of London the head of
the family, for in his will, a copy of which is herewith
printed, no mention is made of any children, and the
only relatives bearing his name in the entire document
are Henry and William Bradbury, the latter of whom
he calls " cosen," and who inherited a large portion of
his estate. It is known that this Henry and William

were the sons of his brother Robert. He also men-
tions his sister, Mrs. Jocelyn.
From the Herald's Visitations in Derbyshire in 1569,
1611 and 1631, the following Bradbury pedigree is
drawn : —
Edward^ Bradbury, of Ollersett in the county of
Derby, married Eleanor, daughter of Thomas Shakerly
of Longson.
Children :
i Ottiweir-^, of Ollersett, m. tVgnes Beard,
ii Robert^ second son.

Agnes, daughter of Nicholas Beard of Beard.
Children :
i Ralph^, d. without issue.
ii Nicholas^, m. Katherine Warren.
iii John^, d. without issue.
iv Anne^ ra. Robert Downes.
Nicholas^ Bradbury, son and heir of the preceding, married
Katherine, daughter of Lawrence Warren of Poynton, in Cheshire.
Children :
Roberts m. Elizabeth Bradbury.

No dates are given in the foregoing, except in one

eighth, but eight generations must represent a period
of about two hundred years, which would take us back
to the last of the thirteenth century, or the first of the
fourteenth, as the date of the birth of the first Ed-
ward. It is quite possible that the Robert^ Bradbury,
named as the second son of Edward, may have been the
one placed at the head of the family in the pedigree
which follows and which has been carefully compiled
from Heralds' Visitations, Inquisitions post mortem,
wills, parish registers, and every other available origi-
nal document.
Absolute perfection is by no means claimed for it,
but the compiler believes it to be as nearly so as it
is possible to have it. It is made up from the min-
utes of the late John Merrill Bradbury of Ipswich,
and is the result of personal research in the archives
of various parts of England, covering a period of sev-
eral years. He was a painstaking searcher and took
nothing for granted until proved.
Robert^ Bradbury, of Ollersett in Derbyshire, mar-
ried a daughter of Robert Davenport (copied also
Damport), of Bramhall, county of Chester. She was
buried at Stansted, Mount Fitchet, county of Essex.
Children :
1 i William-, of Braughing, m. Margaret Rockhill.
2 ii Thomas^, inducted Kector of Meesden*, county Essex, Feb.
6,1486, d. 1513.
♦The orthography of this word is somewhat in doubt. It is hardly
ever found spelled twice alike, but generally so nearly so that it is easily
recognized.

William^ Bradbury (Robert^), of Braughing, in
Hertfordshire, Patron of the church of Westmill in
Hertfordshire in 1462, married Margaret, daughter
and co-heir of Geoii'ry Rockhill of Wormingford, county
Essex.
Children :
3 i Robert^ m. Anne Wyant. (?)
4 ii ThoInas^ Sir Thomas, Kt., Sheriff of London, 1498, Lord
Mayor, 1509, Lord of several manors in Hertfordshire,
Essex, and Kent, married Joan, daughter of Denis and
Elisabeth Leach, whose first husband by whom she had
issue, was Thomas Bodley of Devonshire. She died in
1530. Sir Thomas made his will Jan. 9, 1509-10, while
Lord Mayor, and the same was proved Feb. 27 following.
He and also his wife were bvu-ied in St. Stephen's church,
Coleman street, London. He held the manor Stansted
Mount Fitchet and mentions that his grandmother was
there buried. He had no children, and his nephew Wil-
liam, son of his brother Robert Bradbury, whom he calls
" cosen," succeeded to. a portion of his estate.
5 iii George^, was a London merchant. His will is dated June
6, 1506, and proved June 28 following, by his brother
Henry. Wills lands and tenements in London, in Ware,
county Herts, and Lamborne, county Essex. His sister,
Phillippa Jocelyn, is made heir and after her, her daugh-
ter Johane Hannys (perhaps daughter by her former
husband) .
6 iv Henry^ executor of his bi-other George's will, and named
in the will of his brother Sir Thomas. Will dated Feb.
13,1532-3.3, and proved Jan. 2.3,1533-34. His cousin
Mary Woddam, wife of William Woddam, citizen and
merchant tailor of London, is made executrix and resid-
uary legatee.

7 V PhilliiDpa^, named in the wills of her brothers Thomas and
George, married and was the second wife of John Joce-
lyn of High Roding, county Essex. He died July 14,
1525. His will states that William Bradbury, cousin
and heir of Sir Thomas, was the son of Robert Brad-
bury.

Robert^ Bradbury (William^ Robert^), named in
the inquisition of his brother. Sir Thomas, then dead
(supposed Justice of the Assize, Isle of Ely; Feb. 4,
1486, witness to will of George Nicholl of Littlebury,
Dec. 2, 1484, died 1489, and buried in church of Grey
Friars, London), is said to have married Anne, daughter
of Infans Wyant. (See note.)
Children :
8 i William*, b. 1480, m. Joan (Fitzwilliams) Bendish.*
*We have followed the Herald's Visitation here, but there is evidently
a serious mistake in their reckoning. Tliomas Bendish died about 1477,
and his wife Joan or Jane had deceased prior to May 4, 1490, at which
date her inquisition i)ost mortem was held, when it was found that Rich-
ard Bendish, grandson of Thomas, aged five years, was heir to her estate.
She evidently belonged to a generation back of William Bradbury, and
if she married a Bradbury, as she is reported, it must have been his
father, Robert. When Symonds made liis collection of epitaphs in Essex
in 1639, there was in the church at Clavering a stone bearing the inscrip-
tion in Latin: " Pray for the souls of William Bradbury, Esq., and wife
Elisabeth," which Elisabeth died August 13, 1536. William Bradbury
died later, after his lemoval to Littlebury, and was buried there. This
would show that his wife's name was Elisabeth. The Herald's Visita-
tions do not give the name of the wife of Robert Bradbury, and unfor-
tunately he left no will, and there was no inquisition post mortem to
solve the mystery. In some of the pedigrees he is said to have married
Anne Wyant, and we have followed it, but with this explanation. His
son having been assigned a wife that belonged to the generation of the
father, it is quite probable that the Visitation has made a mistake of one
generation, and that Jane (Fitzwilliam) Bendish was the mother and not
the wife of William Bradbury*.

54 BRADBURY MEMORIAL.
This closes our brief and somewhat fragmentary ac-
count of the Bradbury family of England. Much of it
is irrelevant to the line of Thomas, the emigrant, but
it is not without interest as showing the standing of
the family in England several centuries ago. The
Bradburys, or many of them, were large land owners,
and consequently men of influence and standing in
both church and state. The lord mayor, who had
been a distinguished London merchant and was pos-
sessed of great wealth, was a devoted Catholic, as were
all the chief men and women of England at that date.
Some of the provisions of his will, which appear ridic-
ulous in the light of the nineteenth century, were in
perfect keeping with the superstitions of the age in
which he lived. The wording and provisions of the
will of William Bradbury, father of Wymond, executed
little more than a century later, are in strong contrast
with those expressed in the will of Sir Thomas, and go
to emphasize the great changes in religious sentiment
which a hundred years had wrought. The wording in
William Bradbury's will is quite similar to that in the
will of his grandson Thomas, which was probated in
Salem, Essex County, Mass., near the close of the same
century.
The compiler desires not to be held responsible for
errors in dates or for other discrepancies which may
be found in the foregoing extracts from English ar-
chives. Doubtless there are errors in the original
records, and others may have been made in copying.
In the will of Sir Thomas Bradbury, and in other an-
BRADBUBY MEMOBIAL. 55
cient documents, care has been taken to follow the
original orthography, which somewhat obscures the
meaning to the modern reader, unacquainted with an-
cient forms of expression and ancient modes of spelling.
The compiler will only add that these documents are
printed in the manner and form in Avhich they came
into his hands.
We are now ready to take up the lines of which
Thomas Bradbury, the early settler in Salisbury, Mass.,
is the head, and in order that his English descent
may be clearly understood, it is epitomized below as

DECENDANTS OF THOMAS BRADBURY.
FIRST GENERATION.
Thomas^ Bradbury, (Thomas^ in the English pedi-
gree), second son of Wymond and Elizabeth (Gill nee
Whitgift) Bradbury, was baptized at Wicken-Bonant,
Essex County, England, on the last day of February,
1610-11, as appears by the parish register. Early in
1634 he appeared at Agamenticus, now York, Me., as
the agent or steward of Sir Ferdinando Gorges, the
proprietor of the Province of Maine. He was one of
the original proprietors of the ancient town of Salis-

one of the foremost citizens there for a period of more
than half a century. He was made a freeman in 1640,
held at various times the offices of schoolmaster of the
town, town clerk, justice of the peace, deputy to the
general court, county recorder, associate judge and
captain of the military company, and always filled
these important positions with credit to himself and
satisfaction to the public. For a recording officer he
was peculiarly fitted by his tastes and acquirements.

Mr. Bradbury way appointed first clerk of the writs
in Salisbury in 1641. In 1651, he was chosen a deputy
to the General Court, and again successively in 1652,
1656, 1657, 1660, 1661 and 1666. In 1654. 1656 and
1658, and 1659, he was appointed on various commit-
tees to settle ditt'erences concerning lands, to fix bound-
aries and locate grants. As agent for Gorges, he exe-
cuted some of the earliest deeds recorded in the York
County records. An indenture made the 5th day of
BRADBURY MEMORIAL. 63
May, 1636, reads as follows: "Thomas Bradbury, Gent.,
now agent of Sir Ferdinando Gorges, Knight, confirmed
unto Edward Johnson for the proper use of John Tre-
worgy of Dartmouth, merchant, the use of five hun-
dred acres of land, conditioned to pay annually one
hundred of merchantable cod dried and well condi-
tioned, as an jicknowledgement of the royalty of Sir
Ferdinando Gorges, Knight, to Sir Ferdinando Gorges
or his assigns, at or upon the Feast of Saint Michaels,
the Arch High Angel." This sufficiently establishes
the fact that Mr. Bradbury was the recognized agent
of the proprietor of the Province of Maine, granted
together with New Hampshire, by royal patent in 1622,
to Gorges and Mason, and taken as his portion by
Gorges, in 1629.
During the trial of Mrs. Bradbury, July 28, 1692,
upon the charge of being a witch, her aged and devoted
husband bore testimony to her high character and the
purity of her life in the following terms : "Concerning
my beloved wife, Mary Bradbury, this is what I have
to say : We have been married fifty-five years, and she
hath been a loving and faithful wife unto me unto this
day. She hath been wonderful laborious, diligent
and industrious in her place and employment about the
bringing up of our family which have been eleven
children of our own, and four grandchildren. She was
both prudent and provident, of a cheerful spirit, liberal
and charitable. She being now very aged and weak,
and grieved under affictions, may not be able to speak
much for herself, not being so free of speech as some
64 BRADBURY MEMORIAL.
others might be. I hope her Ufe and conversation
among her neighbors has been such as gives a better
or more real testimony than can ])e expressed by
words."
One hundred and eighteen of Mrs. Bradbury's ac-
quaintances, consisting of both men and women, gave
evidence as follows : ''We the subscribers do testify
that it (her life) was such as becomes the gospel. She
was a lover of the ministry in all appearance, and a
diligent attender upon God's holy ordinances, being of
a courteous and peaceable disposition and carriage,
neither did any of us (some of wliom have lived in
the town with her above fifty years), ever hear or
know that she had any difference or falling out with
any of her neighbors, man, woman or child, but was
always ready and willing to do for them what lay in
her power, night and day, though with hazard of her
health and other danger. More might be spoken in
her commendation, but this for the present."
To the charge of witchcraft, Mrs. Bradbury pleaded
not guilty, and this is what she said in her own behalf:
"I am wholly innocent of any such wickedness through
the goodness of God who has kept me hitherto. I am
the servant of Jesus Christ and have given myself up
to him as my only Lord and Saviour, and to the dilli-
gent attendance upon him in all his holy ordinances,
in utter contempt and defiance of the devil and all his
works as horrid and detestable, and have accordingly
endeavored to frame my life and conversation accord-
ing to the rules of His holy word, and in that faith and
BRADBURY MEMORIAL. 65
practice, resolve by the help and assistance of God to
continue to my life's end. For the truth of what I
say, I humbly refer mj-self to my brethren and neigh-
bors that know me, and unto the searcher of all hearts
for the truth and uprightness of my heart therein
(human frailties and unavoidable excepted), of which
1 bitterly complain every day."
Rev. James Allen testified as follows : "I, bavins:
lived nine years at Salisbury in the work of the min-
istry, and now four years in the office of pastor, to my
best notice and observation of Mrs. Bradbury, she hath
lived according to the rules of the gospel amongst us ;
was a constant attender upon the ministry of the word,
and all the ordinances of the gospel; full of works of
charity and mercy to the sick and poor; neither have
I seen or heard anything of her unbecoming the pro-
fession of the gospel,"
Upham, the historian of the Salem witchcraft, says
of Mrs. Bradbury : "The position as well as character
and age of Mary (Perkins) Bradbury, entitled her to
the highest consideration in the structure of society at
the time. This is recognized in the title 'Mrs.' uni-
formly given her. She had been noted through life
for energy, business capacity, and influence ; her hus-
band Thomas Bradbury had been a prominent charac-
ter in the colony for more than fifty years."
The character of the evidence used against Mrs.
Bradbury may be judged by the following: "The
deposition of William Carr, who testifieth and saith
that, about thirteen j^ears ago, presently after some

difference that happened to be between my honored
father, Mr. George Carr, and Mrs. Bradbury, the pris-
oner at tlie bar, upon a Sabbath at noon, as we were
riding home by the house of Capt. Thomas Bradbury,
I saw Mrs. Brad])ury go into her gate, turn the corner
of, and immediatel}^ there darted out of her gate a
blue boar, and darted at ni}^ father's horse's legs which
made him stumble ; but I saw it no more. And my
father said, 'Boys, what did you see?' And we both
.said, ' A blue boar.' "
This venerable woman was about eighty years of
iige when she was arrested for the crime of bewitching
John Carr so that he became crazed and prematurely
died. The testimony of William Carr at the trial,
went to show that his brother fell in love with Jemima
True, but the proposed match being opposed and
broken off by the father of young Carr, on account of
his youth, he became melancholy and at times insane.
He further stated that he was with his brother and
cared for him in his last sickness, and that his brother
died peaceably and quietly, and never spoke anything
to the harm of Mrs. Bradbury or anybody else. Mrs.
Brad))ury was defended by Major Robert Pike. She
was convicted with four others who were executed
September, 1G92. Mrs. Bradbury escaped punishment,
but by what means, does not appear.*
*Tlie Salem witchcraft craze was one of the most remarkable delusions
<3n record. It affected all classes of the community, and was a sad com-
mentary on the intelligence of the period as well as a plague spot upon
the ermine of the judiciary. It broke out in the year 1692, and within
the space of about three months nineteen persons, including Rev. George

becca Maverick nee Wheelwright.
Burroughs, formerly minister at Casco Bay, and later of Salem Village,
were tried, convicted on the most ridiculous testimony, and executed on
" Gallows Hill," in Salem. The principal charge against Mr. Burroughs
was his great physical strength. The great Cotton Mather was present
on horseback and consented to his death, and while he was suspended in
mid-air, the great divine harrangued the peojjle and congratulated them
on the good work accomplished. It was pre-eminently a reign of terror.
No one felt safe. The most eminent citizens of Essex County, noted for
intelligence and lifelong piety, were arrested and dragged to prison, tried
and condemned on the most unreliable evidence, and executed in the
most brutal manner. Finally the imprisonments, torturings and execu-
tions rose to such a height as to be no longer endurable, and a sudden
revulsion of feeling put a stop to the whole infamous business. There
was no execution after September 22, and a general jail delivery of all
the accused took place the May following. It seems strange that Gov.
Phips should permit the persecution to proceed as far as it did. He
alone had the power to nip the miserable business in the bud, but he
showed no disposition to interfere to stay the judicial slaughter of iimo-
cents, until the bubble burst by its own tension.
*Caleb Moody, son of William, the emigrant who settled at Newbury,
married first, Sara Pierce, and had issue. She died August 25, 1665, and

children. His fifth child, Eleanor, b. October 17, 1700, married James
Bridges of Andover, whose son Moody Bridges, married Naamah Frye,
and was the father of Sarah Bridges, who married John Dean who was
the father of Charles Dean who married Patienre Tappan Kingsbury,
and who was the father of John Ward Dean, a. m., the eminent historian
and editor of the New England Geneological Register. Moody Bridges
also had a daughter Sarah Naamah Bridges, born Sept. 7, 1748, who mar-
ried Jedediah Jewett of Exeter, N. H., and Pittston, Me., whose daugh-
ter, Martha Jewett, married James North, and was the mother of James
William North, author of the History of Augusta.
*Rev. John Buss was the minister at Oyster River, now Durham, N. H.
In 1694, his house was burned by the Indians and many valuable records
destroyed. John Buss died in 1737 at a very advanced age. Elizabeth

t Robert Pike was one of the most remarkable men of the period in
which he lived. Born in England in 1616, he came to Salem, Mass., with
his father's family when nineteen years of age. He was one of the
founders of Salisbury, Mass., and resided there from 1639 to the time of

his death in 1707, aged 91 years. He married Sarah Sanders and had a
family of eight children, one of whom was Rev. John Pike, minister in
Dover. His biographer says of Robert Pike tliat he was engaged in three
conspiciions controversies during his life. The first was his arraignment
by the General Court in 1653, for his hostility to the persecution of the
Quakers. The second was his resistance to the dogmatic authority of
the clergy, in the person of his pastor, Rev. John Wheelwright. The
third was his bitter opposition to the witchcraft prosecutions in 1692. In
all of these controversies, Mr. Pike stood practically alone. He was a
century in advance of his time, and a century more than vindicated his
advanced positions. The historian of the Salem witchcraft delusion says
that "not a voice comes down to us of deliberate and effective hostility
to the movement, except that of Robert Pike in his cool, close and pow-
erful argumentative appeal to the judges who were trying the witchcraft
cases. It stands out against the deep blackness of those proceedings
like a pillar of light upon a starless midnight sky." Confronting the
judges stood this sturdy old man, his head whitened with the frosts of
seventy-six winters, and demonstrated that there was no legal way of
convicting a witch, even according to the laws and beliefs of those times.
It required no small amount of courage for him to take the stand he did
against the opinions of the highest judicial tribunal in the province,
when no one was considered safe from the charge of having dealings
with the evil one, and he himself might be the next one ariaigned. But
having the courage of his convictions he rose to the demands of the
situation and proclaimed his opposition by a formal and thorough expo-
sition. The great merit of this position, so far as it has come down to
us, belongs solely to him, and no man of his century is entitled to
greater honor. He was a leading man in Salisbury, often associated
with Thomas Bradbury on committees and commissions for the transac-
tion of public business. At the age of thirty-two he was chosen a

William^ Bradbuey (Thomas^), married Rebecca,
widow of Samuel Maverick, jr., and daughter of Rev.

March 10, 1664. Samuel Maverick, jr., was the son
of the king's commissioner ; Rev. John Wheelwright
was the founder of Exeter, N. H., and his wife Mary
was daughter of Edward Hutchinson, and grand-
daughter of John Hutchinson, mayor of London, Eng-

member of the General Court, and hail a much longer service in that
capacity and as councilor and assistant, than any of his contemporaries.
He was well educated, wrote a fine, flowing hand, a^jparently with great
facility, and was an eloquent and forcible si^eaker. He defended Mrs.
Mary Bradbury on her trial for wichcraft, but all eloquence and argument
were lost upon the infatuated judges and jury. It is a marvel how Mr.
Pike breasted the storm, when any resistence to the pojiular demand was
deemed evidence of complicity with witches, imps and all the powers of
darkness, to overthrow the true church on earth. He also plead the
cause of Susanna Martin, whose memory is perpetuated by the poet
Whittier, and of several others of the accused, and his opposition to the
infamous proceedings and rulings of the court, and the insane demands
of the people, appear to have caused no charge to be made against him.
*She was the daughter of Henry '^j jr., and Jane (Bradbury) True, and
cousin to her husband. Henry True', the ancestor of the Xew England
family of this name, was of Salem, Mass., in 1644, and according to the

liberal education, and early chose the medical profession as his life pur-
suit. He settled first at Windsor, Conn., but afterward moved to Guil-
ford, when that township was under the government of the New Haven
Colony. A letter written by him Sept. 24, 1669, mentions the death of

was an officer of ability and conspicuous bravery. He was appointed to
command Fort Richmond, situated on the right bank of the Kennebec
river at the head of Swau island, June 13, 1734, and in Sept., 1747, he was
in command of George's Fort near Penobscot. "A party of the enemy
{Indians) appeared at George's Fort in the eastward. Lieut. Kilpatrick,
with twenty-five men, went from the blockhouse to scour the woods and
haul wood to the landing-place. They were soon fired upon by the
Indians. Captain Bradbury hearing the report of the guns, issued from
the fort with a party of his men and engaged them ; fought them about
two hours, in wliich time four men were killed." — (Nile's Indian Wars.)

of Ephraim Jones, and two years later he purchased
of Moses Parsons a lot of land on the corner of Middle
and Willow streets, where he built a house which is
still standing. While in Portland he had for a law

eral other leading citizens of Falmouth, were indicted
for the crime of dancing at Joshua Freeman's tavern.
Mr. Bradbury brought himself and friends off by
pleading that the room in which they danced was not
to be regarded as a place of public resort, having been
hired by private parties, and that the persons there
assembled had a right to meet and dance in their own
room. The plea was sustained by the court. While
in Falmouth Mr. Bradbury was attorney for the state
two years. He returned to Newbury in 1779, and was
elected to congress from the Essex district. In 1797,
he was appointed a judge of the supreme court of the
commonwealth, and was regarded as an able jurist.

died October 4, 1838. He was one of the early settlers
of Exeter, Maine. He died in Cheshire, Ohio, Sep-
eter, in 1872, three of his sons, Caleb, Asa and Joseph, came from their
distant homes to visit the place of their birth, on which occasion the late
David Barker composed the following lines : —
THE BEADBURY BOYS.
I know how people talk and feel,
About this noise and fuss.
This meeting here today between
The Bradbury boys and us.
How time whirls on — in figuring up
We find the fact appears.
Since last we met these Bradbury boys
'Tis more than fifty years.
Perhaps you know these Bradbury boys.
If not, you ought to know
This tall, gray fellow here is Cale,
And then come Ase and Joe,
These other fellows lubbering round.
Are all our boys you see —
Here's IS'oah and Xat and Dan and Mark,
And also Lew and me.
These Bradbury boys, one left his law.
And one his grapes and corn.
And traveled near a thousand miles
To find where they were born.
Look: — here's where old Joe Bradbury lived —
The place that Bradbury tilled.
And there's the chopping father cleared
The year that he was killed.
And there's where Thomas Townsend dwelt,
Where on his leathern seat.
He took those measures year by year
Of our tired, pattering feet.

681 i Cale¥, b. Jan. 10, 1801 ; m. Almira Elizabeth Brown.
682 ii Ammi K. C.', b. ; d. aged 16 months.
Those feet have trod some sHppery paths
Since death one day so grim,
Took Townsend from his kit of tools
And then his breath from him.
Tliat broken clam-sliell skimmer there,
This moment found by Joe,
His mother used for skimming milk
Some sixty years ago.
Poor Joe— but then my muse can wait
Until your cheeks are dry,
Some think that nought but loss of fees,
Can make a lawyer cry.
That wall — hold on — Nat's pigs are out —
Good gracious what a fuss
Mid pigs and tears to rhyme about.
The Bradbury boys and vis.
Don't ask — that thought has bothered me: —
This how and where and lohen,
We six shall meet and recognize
These Bradbury boys again.
Friends of life's early youth accept
This humble gift of mine,
A wreath wrought with a hurried hand
Around this pilgrim shrine.
However faint a fickle faith
Some future bliss insures,
Amid each agony of doubt
One present bliss is yours.
If you will bear to western homes
Old memories frought with joy.
As ^neas box'e Anchises through
The burning gates of Troy.

sive of those united to members of the family by marriage, now all reside
within six miles of their parents. Eighty-five of these (one being absent
in Mexico, and five hindered by sickness), assembled recently by appoint-
ment at the house of Lemuel Bradbury, the second son. They were mar-
shalled into a beautifvil grove where they listened to an address by the
Rev. B. B. Carpenter, and then repaired to a richly spread table one
hundred and ten feet long where they feasted. And after spending
awhile in social chat, they separated, feeling that their attachment for
each other was strengthened by their social interview."

ter of John Sanders and widow Peter Turbot. The descent is Daniel',

thau^, who married Joanna Bradbury. These last were the parents of
William Frederic Goodwin, who was born in Buxton in 1823, graduated
from Bowdoin College in 1848, taught academies a few years, studied law
and received the degree of l.l. b. from Harvard College, and was
about to enter into practice when the war broke out. He entered the
service as first lieutenant in the regular army, was severely wounded and
disabled at the battle of Chickamauga, was breveted captain and placed
on recruiting service. He remained in the service to the close of the
war, then settled in Concord, N. H., where he died from the effects of his
wounds in 1872. He was an enthusiastic historical student, compiled the
early records of Buxton, which were published ; aided Dennett in restor-
ing the old plan of Buxton, showing the location of the early settlers; and
was a constant contributor to Dawson's Historical Magazine. He ob-
tained through Miss Harriet Bainbridge much important information
respecting his ancestry in England, both on the maternal and paternal
side. His death was much lamented.

Elijah'' Bradbury* (Elijah'^, Jacob*, Jacob^, Wil-
*Wlien Elijah Bradbury moved to Brownfield that entire region -was
comparatively newly settled and wild beasts, more especially bears, were
very numerous. The following adventure which Mr. Bradbury had with
a trio of these animals is still related by his descendants. One day as
he was with his team in his wood-lot some fourth of a mile from his
house, he noticed a hole under the roots of a decayed tree which curios-
ity prompted him to examine. Appearances indicated that it might be
the lair of some wild beast. After knocking about the entrance for some
time, and neither being invited in nor ordered off, he introduced the
brad-end of his goad stick, which coming in contact with the hide of
some animal, caused it to utter a deep and angry growl, and to spring
out of the hole with evident hostile intent. Mr. Bradbury sprang one
side and the bear, for such it proved to be, immediately returned to the
back part of the den. It soon became evident that bruin was not the
sole occupant of these snug quarters, but that her family, consisting of
two half-grown cubs, shared the place with her. Waiting at the entrance
until all became quiet, Mr. Bradbury went and picked up his ax and
returned to the house. After spending nearly four hours in fruitless
efforts to obtain help, he returned to the woods and again introduced his
goad-stick for the purpose of stirring the animals up, which he had no
sooner done than all three rushed out upon him. He gave the foremost
one, which was one of the cubs, a blow with the ax which put him out
of tlie contest. The second cub he stunned with a blow upon the head,
and the next blow broke the jaw of the dam. She then retired into the
den, and after dispatching the one he had stunned, he attempted to force
the dam from lier retreat, but without avail. He then stopped the en-
trance to the den by means of blocks of wood, and then proceeded with
his ax to make a new opening just over her. As soon as this opening
was made the enraged beast sprang out, when she received the blade of
the ax upon her head which broke through the skull and entered the
brain. This was twice repeated before she succumbed and fell to the
ground. Mr. Bradbury loaded his three bears upon his sled and returned
home, well pleased with his achievement.

Hon. James Ware' Bradbury, ll. d. (James^, Cot-
ton^, John'*, WymoncF, Wymoiid", Thomas^), son of Dr.
James and Ann (Moulton) Bradbury, born in Parsons-
field, June 10, 1802, attended the public schools of his
native town, then a term or two at the academies at
Saco, Limerick and Effingham, N. H., and completed
his preparatory course at Gorham academy, under the
charge of Preceptor Nason. He entered the Sopho-
more class at Bowdoin college in 18!^2, and graduated
from that institution with the famous class of 18251
Among his class-mates were Henry AV. Longfellow,
Josiah Stover Little, Jonathan Cilley, Nathaniel Haw-
thorne, John S. C. Abbott and George B. Cheever.
Josiah S. Little took the first rank for scholarship in
the class. At the commencement, three English ora-
tions were assigned to the class ; Little had the vale-
dictory and Bradbury and Longfellow the remaining
two.
After graduating Mr. Bradbury came to Hallowell
and had charge of the academy for one year. At that
time no town or city in Maine was more distinguished
for culture and literary acquirements. Dr. Benjamin
160 BRADBURY MEMORIAL.
Yaughan, formerly a member of the English Parlia-
ment, had taken up his residence in HalloAvell, and he
and his family gave a high tone to society there, while
the good doctor was ever doing some kind act to im-
prove the condition of all classes. At the expiration
of his engagement at Hallowell, Mr. Bradbury entered
upon the study of law in the office of Hon. Rufus Mc-
Intire of Parsonsfield, and after a year entered the
office of Hon. Ether Shepley of Portland, subsequently
the honored chief justice of the supreme judicial court
of the state, and completed his studies there. The
required term of study for admission to the bar was
three years, and having a few months on his hands
before a term of court would be held at which he could
be admitted, he went to Effingham, N. H., and opened
a school for the instruction of teachers. The notice
of such an innovation in teaching, brought together a
large class, some fifty or more, who were drilled and
instructed in much the same manner as has since been
practiced in our normal schools. Most of the pupils
had been teachers in public schools, and those who had
not were about to engage in teaching. They were all
put into one class and drilled daily in the methods re-
commended to be employed in instructing in all the
branches then taught in the common schools. The
importance of such schools had been impressed upon
Mr. Bradbury while visiting the schools of the period,
and if a similar school had previously been taught in
New England, he then had no knowledge of it.
BRADBURY MEMORIAL. 161
In 1830, Mr. Bradbury removed to Augusta, the
capitol of the state, and here has since been his home,
a period of sixty years. Here he opened an office for
the practice of law to which he had been admitted.
The Kennebec county bar at this time was unsurpassed
for ability and brilliancy by any in the state. Among
the distinguished names of those then in practice here,
were Peleg Sprague, George Evans, Reuel Williams,
Frederic Allen, Henry W. Fuller, William Emmons,
Timothy Boutelle, Samuel Wells and Hiram Belcher.
To obtain a foothold in a field so ably occupied, re-
quired ability and untiring effort. Mr. Bradbury was
in love with his profession and devoted his entire time
to it. In the space of four years he had secured a
large and lucrative practice, which continued and in-
creased until he was elected to the United States sen-
ate in 1846. During these sixteen years he was one
of the busiest men on Kennebec river. The business
of his office was not surpassed by any in the state.
He was constantly employed from early morning until
late at night, on consultations and office business, and
in the numerous trials before the jury and the court
arising from his extensive practice. The extent of his
business best shows in what estimation he was held.
He was a sound and discriminating lawyer, a skillful
and eloquent advocate, who never failed to do full jus-
tice to the cause of his client. In 1833, he formed a
co-partnership with Mr. Horatio Bridge, which contin-
ued for one year, when Mr. Bridge left the legal pro-
11

fession to engage in other pursuits. In 1838, Richard
D. Rice, afterward associate justice of the supreme
court, entered Mr. Bradbur^^'s office as a student, and
upon his admission to the bar was admitted into part-
nership. This became necessary on account of Mr.
Bradbury's hirgely increasing business, and the part-
nership continued until 1848, when Governor Dana
appointed Mr. Rice to the bench.
Mr. Bradbury then formed a partnership with the
late Lot M, Morrill, who had just come to Augusta from
Readfield. During this partnership Mr. Morrill was
■elected state senator and three times governor of
Maine. Finally he was elected United States senator,
and the partnership was terminated. In 1856, Joseph
H. Meserve was admitted to the firm, of which he re-
mained a valued member until his death in 1864. Mr.
Bradbury then associated with himself his son James
Ware Bradbury, jr., and kept up the firm largely for the
purpose of establishing the son in business. He was a
young man of excellent character and marked ability,
and his death in 1876 was a great loss to the commu-
nity, and a crushing blow to the famil}^
When he first came to Augusta Mr. Bradbury, for
one year, and for the purpose of becoming better ac-
quainted with the people of the state, edited a demo-
cratic paper published in Augusta, called the "Maine
Patriot." This paper was democratic in sentiment, and
Mr. Bradbury commenced life and has always continued
-a democrat from conviction and principle. He has
ever believed that a strict adherence to democratic
BRADBURY MEMORIAL. 163
principles as expounded by the fathers, and as gener-
ally exemplified by the polic}^ of democratic adminis-
tions, is best calculated to secure the rights of the peo-
ple and the permanency of the union of the states.
While openly and firmly maintaining his own views on
political questions, he always considered the equal
rights of others, and he never allowed his social rela-
tions to be disturbed on account of difference of politi-
cal opinion. He never allowed politics to interfere
with his business. In 1835, he was appointed county
attorney by Governor Dunlap, and accepted it, this
being in the line of his profession.
From the time of his coming to Augusta he took a
leading part in the political movements of the day,
and especially in organizing and harmonizing the politi-
cal forces of his party in county and state, for which
service he possessed uncommon tact. When the con-
test arose between the Jackson democrats who sup-
ported Martin Van Buren, and the friends of Mr. Cal-
houn, Mr. Bradbury took a decided stand in favor of
the former. He was a delegate to the Baltimore con-
vention of 1844, in which the supporters of Van Buren
had a decided majority, but not the required two-thirds
necessary to secure a nomination. They determined,
however, that if Mr. Yan Buren could not be nominated,
they and not their opponents in the convention should
make the selection. After a struggle of several days
continuance, they presented the name of James K.
Polk which was received with demonstrations of joy,
and he was at once nominated and triumphantly elect-
164 BRABBUHY MEMORIAL.
ed. During this canvas Mr. Bradbury departed from
his usual custom and took the stump in favor of Mr.
Polk, speaking often and in various parts of the state.
He strongly urged the admission of Texas, which was
an issue in the campaign, to prevent that great section
of country from becoming subject to British influence.
The organization and success of the democratic party
in that campaign was largely due to Mr. Bradbury's
influence.
At the session of the Maine legislature in 1846, Mr,
Bradbury was chosen United States senator for the
term of six years from the fourth day of March fol-
lowing. At the commencement of the session in De-
cember, 1847, he took his seat. His first speech in
that body was an eulogy on the life and character of
his colleague, Hon. John Fairfield, who died fourteen
days from the opening of the session. It was a fitting
tribute to an able and patriotic son of Maine. Mr.
Bradbury's entrance into the United States senate hap-
pened jit a very interesting period of our history,
whether with regard to the character and composition
of the senate, or the subjects presented for action.
Among the members of this branch of the government
were Daniel Webster, Henry Clay, John C. Calhoun,
Thomas H. Benton, Lewis Cass, Stephen A. Douglass,
William H. Seward and Salmon P. Chase, giants in in-
tellect, and others of scarcely less ability and distinc-
tion. When Mr. Bradbury took his seat the war with
Mexico was going on, and he gave his hearty support
to the national administration in all its measures to

•
sustain and strengthen our army then in the heart of
Mexico, and surrounded by hostile forces vastly supe-
rior in numbers to themselves. There was strong op-
position to the administration in the senate, and in the
other branch there were those who refused to vote
supplies for the armies in the field. The ratification of
the treaty of peace with Mexico was bitterl}^ opposed
and came near being defeated.
Mr. Bradbury was made chairman of the committee
on printing • also a member of the judiciary commit-
tee and of the committee on claims. He served on
the judiciary committee, which was a very hard work-
ing one, until the close of his term. The question of
slavery began more and more to excite the attention
of Congress upon attempts to form governments for
the territor}^ acquired from Mexico. The South claim-
ed that the territories were the common property of all
the citizens of the United States, and that they should
have the right to migrate there with their families, in-
cluding their slaves, and that Congress had no right to
deprive them of this privilege. This was met by the
denial of the right of the citizens of any state to carry
their local laws into the territories, and the assertion
of the power of Congress to prohibit slavery therein.
A bill introduced to establish territorial governments
for Oregon, California and New Mexico, led to a long
discussion. Mr. Bradbury opposed the bill because it
avoided the question as to whether Congress had or
had not the power to legislate upon the subject of
slavery in the territories; also because it devolved
166 BRADBURY MEMOBIAL.
upon the court the determination of questions that
properly belonged to Congress to settle. This bill, he
claimed, would not finish the controversy but only
postpone it. He ever regarded the administration of
Mr. Polk as one of the most important in our history.
General Taylor was elected president in 1848, and
during the campaign he stated that in case of his elec-
tion, he would remove no person from office on account
of politics. His pledges were not kept in this regard,
and Mr. Bradbury introduced a resolution which called
upon the president to cause to be laid before the sen-
ate a list of the removals from office since the preced-
ing fourth of March, with a statement of charges filed
against them, his object being to vindicate the demo-
cratic party from the charge of proscription of their
political opponents, which was most triumphantly ac-
complished, the records going to show that his party
had been much less proscriptive than those of their
opponents.
In 1849, Mr. Clay introduced a compromise measure
covering the question of government for the territories,
including an adjustment of the boundaries of Texas.
This bill was assailed by extremists, both from the
North and South. A majority of the senate were in
favor of the general features of the bill, bnt its passage
was blocked upon the question of the amount of indem-
nity to be paid to Texas. Mr. Bradbury offered an
amendment providing for commissioners, both on the
part of Congress and Texas, to agree upon a boundary
and equivalents, which was adopted by a close vote.
BRADBURY MEMORIAL. 167
But the section to which this amendment was added
was subsequently stricken out, which again opened
the whole question. Mr. Bradbury supported Mr.
Clay's compromise bill because he was convinced its
provisions were proper in themselves, and were a
peaceable adjustment of matters in controversy.
In 1852, Mr. Bradbury was upon a special committee
on French spoliations, and had charge in the senate of
a bill looking to the adjustment of these long delayed
claims. The bill was strenuously opposed, but Mr.
Bradbury made an eloquent and exhaustive speech in
its favor and the senate passed it by a large majority.
With much labor and preparation, he secured the pas-
sage of a bill to indemnify Maine and Massachusetts
for losses sustained in the settlement of the boundary
between Maine and New Brunswick. It was also
through his efforts that the first appropriation was
made for improving the navigation of the Kennebec
river. He was an active and hard-working member
throughout his entire term, looking carefully after the
public good, and especially looking out for the interests
of his constituents. He was a ready debater, a fluent
speaker, always presenting the strong points of a case
in a clear and concise manner. He was also a most
indefatigable worker in the committee-room. He de-
clined a re-election, and at the close of his term retired
to private life and at once resumed the practice of his
profession. He has had no desire for office since ; and
a few years ago, having given up the practice of law,.
168 BRADBURY MEMORIAL.
he has i^ince given his time and attention to the manage-
ment of his private affairs.
In the settlement of contested election cases in the
Maine legislature Mr. Bradbury has had a larger experi-
ence than any other Maine citizen. For very many
years he was on one side or the other of almost every
contested case, and his clients were generally success-
ful. He has also had large experience in drafting bills
to be presented to the legislature, and some of the most
valuable measures passed for the management and re-
striction of railway corporations have been proposed
by him. His efforts have been directed to securing
the rights of all parties, and especially the rights of
small stockholders against the grasping policy of rail-
way managers. In his law practice he was always
faithful to his clients, and ever ready to advise and
promote a settlement betAveen parties when it could be
fairly and equitably effected, and especially in family
difficulties. He was opposed to litigation in trifling
matters, and always refused all such business.
He has ever kept up his interest in Bowdoin College.
He was for several years a member of the board of
overseers, and for thirty years a member of the board
of trustees. Since 1866 he has been chairman of the
committee of finance. He attends all the commence-
ments, and looks after the welfare of the college in all
its interests. The college conferred upon him the
honorary degree of doctor of laws in 1872. He has
long been an active and efficient member of the Maine
Historical Societ}', and was its president from 1873 to
BRADBURY MEMORIAL. 169
1889. He obtained from the Maine legislature a grant
of land, the sale of which forms the bulk of the per-
manent fund of the society at the present time. He
has long been an active member of the Congregational
church in Augusta, and is much interested in the good
of the cause at large. He has charity and fellowship
for all denominations of Christians, and would have
them work harmoniously in the great work committed
to their charge.
As a citizen Mr. Bradbury has ever taken an active
part in all the public enterprises of the day, and has
ever been ready to contribute of his time and means
for the advancement of any measure calculated to ben-
efit the city of his adoption, and the state. He opposed
the construction of two parallel lines of railway through
the state, and still believes it would have been better
for the state had his views been carried out. He was
a director of the Somerset & Kennebec railroad, and
had much to do in effecting a union of this road with
the Portland & Kennebec. At the time of this writing
(March, 1890), Mr. Bradbury, though he has passed
the eighty-seventh mile-stone, is still remarkably vig-
orous, takes charge of a large private business, attends
to his duties as a bank president, is a constant atten-
dant at church on the Sabbath, and attends the meet-
ings at Portland of the standing committee of the
Maine Historical Society, of which he is one. His
mind is still unimpaired, and his enjoyment of life and
its work is apparently as great as ever.
On the occasion of Mr. Bradbury's eighty-fifth birth-
170 BRADBURY MEMORIAL.
day (June 10, 1887), the Maine Historical Society ten-
dered him a complimentary dinner at the Falmouth
Hotel. There were present beside the leading mem-
bers of the Maine Historical Society, Hon Cyrus Wood-
man* of Cambridge, Abner C. Goodell, jr., president
of the New England Historical and Genealogical So-
ciety, and Charles Deane, ll. d.,* of Cambridge. Let-
ters were received from distinguished men from various
parts of the country. Prof. Henry L. Chapman of
Bowdoin College presided in a very able and accepta-
ble manner. His opening speech was a model for such
an occasion. On being presented Mr. Bradbury was
received with cheers and made a very neat and appro-
priate speech. Speeches were also made by Hon. John
A. Peters, chief-justice of the supreme court, Dr. Charles
Deane, President Goodell, Hon. Hannibal Hamlin,
Hon. Marshall Cram,* Rev. Dr. Fiske, Hon. George F.
Talbot, and Hon. William Goold. The letters were
read by the secretary, Hubbard W. Bryant. The oc-
casion Avas one of unusual interest.
The following is an extract from Prof. Chapman's
opening remarks : —
We are here today in grateful recogiution of the debt we owe
to the fidelity and wisdom of one who has been so many years our
sachem — our esteemed and honored president. We all know,
gentlemen, his unselfish devotion to the welfare of the society ;
his wise and watchful care over its varied interests ; the kindly
courtesy of his official and personal relations with us. It is a great
pleasure to us to give some outward expression to the honor which
our hearts have all along yielded to him. And in order to empha-

size the feeling that prompted this gathering we have been glad to
invite and to welcome here the representatives of sister societies
to unite with us in this tribute of esteem. We may thus confirm,
by living contact and fellowship, the sympathies that run along
the obscure lines of antiquarian research, and bind us together in
the ties of common or similar pursuits.
Nor do we forget that the day is one that permits us to add to
this token and assurance of our associated regard the kindly con-
gratulations and good wishes which belong to a personal anniver-
sary^, an anniversary, it may be said, that recurs with startling
frequency in all our lives. Whatever that was cherished and val-
uable the passing years may have taken away from our revered
president, who today reaches another mile-stone on his journey,
they have not taken away from him the continued power and
privilege of serving his fellow-men in many noble ways. They
cannot take away from him the record of that for which we honor
him — a life distinguished by important duties worthily performed,
by high trusts faithfully discharged, by great privileges blame-
lessly enjoyed. And, on the other hand, they have brought to
him in their swift passage, —
That which should accompany old age,
As honor, love, obedience, troops of friends.
In his domestic relations Mr. Bradbury was signally-
fortunate. He married November 25, 1834, Eliza Ann,
daughter of Thomas Westbrook and Abigail (Page)
Smith of Augusta, who was born March 18, 1815. Mr.
Smith, father of Mrs. Bradbury, was born in Dover,
N. H., February 22, 1785, and in 1805 came to Augusta
and engaged in trade, which he followed for many
years and accumulated a large fortune for his day.
The mother of Mrs. Bradbury was Abigail, daughter
of Ezekiel and Betsey (Robie) Page, who came to Au-
gusta from Haverhill, Mass., in 1762. Mrs. Bradbury
172 BRADBURY MEMORIAL.
was a most womanly woman. Affectionate, cheerful,
full of energy and possessed of great executive ability,
qualities inherited from her parents, she was a model
wife, mother, friend and member of society. She lived
with her husband in happy union for over forty-four
years, and for the most part of that time enjoyed perfect
health. She died suddenly January 29, 1879, greatly
lamented by her surviving family, and deeply mourned
by the entire community. In her life-time she abound-
ed in deeds of charity and kindness. The Old Ladies'
Home in Augusta was one of her favorite charges, of
the management of which sIiq was president at the
time of her death. She had been a member of the
Congregational church for many years, but for several
years before her death she attended the Episcopal
church. Her creed was much broader than that of any
denomination; she observed strictly the Golden Rule,
and hers were " the charities that soothe and heal and
bless." The epitaph engraved on her headstone is
truly expressive of her character : —
She loved to do good.
A local paper in a notice of the death of Mrs. Brad-
bury, said : "Her departure will be lamented by a wide
circle of friends who knew her sterling qualities of
mind and heart. She was a woman of large business
capacity, possessing uncommon executive abilities. She
was ever active and foremost in all benevolent and
charitable movements, and was engaged at the time of
her first attack of illness in preparing, through her own

labor and employed help, clothing for the poor and
food to be distributed among needy families. In her
the indigent and unfortunate ever found a sympathetic
friend, ready with liberal hand to contribute to their
necessities. They will mourn her death with unfeigned
sorrow. She was a noble woman, possessing a kind
heart and generous hand. Her life was filled with
deeds of charity and of active benevolence, and her
time and means were largely employed in suppl^-ing
the wants and relieving the distresses of others." An-
other local paper, among other things, said : "Mrs.
Bradbury inherited from her father great industry,
sterling sense and correct judgment, softened in her
by the womanly graces inherited from her mother.
Her death casts a gloom over many a humble home,
and her memory will be cherished by hundreds who
have received bounty from her hand. The death of
such a woman is a public loss."
The children of Hon. James Ware and Eliza Ann
(Smith) Bradbury, all born in Augusta, were : —
1018 i Henry Westbrook^, b. Feb. 10, 1836; m. Louisa H.
Gregorie.
1019 ii James Ware, jr.^ b. July 22, 1839; d. Sept. 21, 1876.
He entered Bowdoin College in 1857, and graduated
with honor in the class of 1861, He immediately en-
tered upon the study of the law, in the offit-e of Brad-
bury, Morrill & Meserve. Ui)on the completion of
the regular course of studies and his admission to the
bar, he entered upon the practice of his profession in
partnership with his father. His industry and devo-
tion to business were attended with success. In 1871,
174 BRADBURY MEMORIAL.
he passed the winter in Florida, where he formed the
acquaintance and secured the attachment of many
warm personal friends. Upon his return he resumed
the labors of his office, and at the time of his decease
the brightest prospects of professional success were
opening before him. His conscientiousness, integrity
and fidelity to the true interests of his clients secured
their confidence and increased their number, and drew
to him the best class of professional business. Always
opposed to useless litigation and pettifogging in any
form, he preferred equity to ^ny advantage gained by
stratagem and finesse. Hence it was that he often be-
came a peacemaker when different advice would have
led to expensive and often unavailing litigation. He
was city solicitor of Augusta in 1868, filling the posi-
tion to the satisfaction of the municipal authorities
and the people. He was appointed U. S. commissioner
in 1869, and held the office until his decease, discharg-
ing its duties with independence, ability and fidelity.
Although not an ultra partizan, Mr. Bradbury ever
took a deep interest in public affairs, and Avas strongly
attached to the principles of the democratic party.
They were with him a matter of conviction. He felt
that the best interests of the country were to be se-
cured by their maintenance, and he never wavered in
their support throughout the long and hopeless minor-
ity of the party, though well knowing that it closed
every avenue to political preferment. Prof. Packard
said of him : " He left us with the impression that he
possessed intellectual powers which promised much
for his friends and for the public."

and habits, and his early death, the first in the family,

College ill 1830. The next year he was preceptor of
Alfred academy, and in 1832 commenced the study of
law wdth Daniel Goodenow of that town. He com-
pleted his studies with Hon. William P. Preble of Port>
land, and was admitted to the York county bar in May,
1834. He opened an office in Calais, and soon after
formed a partnership with Hon. Anson G. Chandler,
Avhicli continued until the latter was appointed to the
bench of the supreme court. In 1844, Mr. Bradbury
was appointed collector of customs for Passamaquoddy
district, and moved to Eastport ; he was twice re-ap-
pointed. He served in the Maine legislature in 1849,
1850, and again in 1862. The last time he was elected
by the unanimous vote of both parties. He was can-
elate for congress in 1858 and 1874, and for governor
in 1863, but his party being in the minority, he was
defeated. He was also a member of the National Dem-
ocratic conventions of 1856, 1860 and 1880. During
all these years Mr. Bradbury continued in the practice
of the law, and always with marked success. He was
ii o-ood counselor and a brilliant advocate. In 1864,
Mr. Bradbury removed to Portland, and in 1885 was
appointed surveyor of the port of Portland, which
office he was holding at the time of his death. He
died July 1, 1887. A cotemporary of Mr. Bradbury
thus spoke of him : " One of the most distinguished
and best beloved sons of Maine, has, after a life con-
spicuous for honorable activity and achievement, gone
to his rest. The intelligence of his death will be receiv-
ed wdtli profound regret by men of all parties and sects,
BRADBURY MEMORIAL. 183
and will occasion a feeling of personal loss to more
people in this state, unrelated to him by kinship or
political ties, than the announcement of the death of
almost any other of the citizens of Maine." Mr. Brad-
bury married October 25, 1837, Alice H., daughter of
Col. Johnson Williams of Brooklyn, N. Y., afterward
of Waterville, Me., who was the son of Dr. Obadiah
Williams, a distinguished citizen of Waterville, Avho

tillery. He was afterward promoted to captain of the
battery, and then to major of the regiment. He was
a brave and gallant officer, as his promotions suf-

Ebenezer^ Bradbury (Theophilus^, Jonathan^, The-
ophilus*, Wymond'^, Wymond^, Thomas^), was a silver-
smith by trade, and resided in Newburjport. He was
a noble specimen of the self-made man. He had a
large family, but by industrious and economical habits
he brought up his children in comfort, and gave them
a good education. By steady and methodical habits of
study he acquired a large amount of useful informa-
tion. His benevolence and genial disposition, united
with strict integrity, won for him the respect and good
will of his fellow-citizens, and gave him great influence
in his native town. He had great interest in educa-
tional matters, which continued unabated all through
his useful life. He was frequently elected to munici-
pal offices, and for five years was a member of the
Massachusetts legislature. In 1847, he was chosen
speaker of the House. For two years he was a mem-
ber of the executive council, and in 1849 was elected
treasurer of the commonwealth, a position which he held
two years — as long as the party to which he belonged
was then in power. In 1853, he resided in Newton,
186 BRADBURY MEMORIAL.
and was a delegate from that town to the constitutional
convention. The next year he represented that town
in the general court. Later in life he was judge of the
municipal court in Milford. He was upright in his
dealings, modest and unassuming in his demeanor, kind
and obliging to every one, he served his town and state
most faithfully, and his death, which took place June
19, 1864, was greatly lamented by a large circle of
friends. He married December 10, 1815, Nancy Mer-
rill, who was born November 12, 1796, and died Janu-
ary 13, 1832. He married second, July 3, 1832, Mary
Tappan, who was born November 25, 1798. He had
eighteen children, the eight first born in Newburyport,
and the others, part in Newbur^qDort and part in South-
ampton, Franklin county, Penn.

Hannah Elizabeti^^ Bradbuky (Benjamin Burbank^,
John^, John^, John*, WynioncP, Wymonc?, Thomas^),
born in Chesterville, Me., March 16, 1827, received her
education in the common schools and at Farmington
academy. She early developed a talent for composi-
tion, and has a well established reputation as an au-
thoress in both prose and poetry. Her father, Benja-
min B. Bradbury, moved from Chesterville to Newport,
and thence to Bangor, and here under her initials Miss
Bradbury wrote numerous short stories and poems,
which were very popular and had a wide circulation.
Her later productions, such as " Dr. Howell's Famil}^,"
"One Among Many," "Our Party of Four," and
" Christine's Fortune," have greatly widened her repu-
tation. To the " Poets of Maine," published in 1888,
she contributed "Lake Lucerne," "A Winter Sunset,"
"Only Ferns," and " A Child's Dream." These four
short poems are gems, and among the best in the col-
lection, but the author is best known to the literary
world as a writer of fiction. She married July 17,
1859, Mr. George C. Goodwin of Charlestown, Mass.
They now reside in Boston.

John Merrill^ Bradbury (Ebenezer", Theophilus^,

born in Newburyport, October 29, 1818, spent his
youth in his native town, where he received a good
English and classical education, and also at Dummer
academy, then in charge of Dr. Nehemiah Cleveland.
In Newburyport he was at one time the pupil of Albert
Pike, the poet. One of his early schoolmates, Rev.
Dr. George D. Wildes, in his recollections of the youth
232 BBADBURY MEMORIAL.
of Mr. Bradbury, written for the family, said : " Of no
one of the associates of my boyhood could I write
more that would illustrate the value of useful example.
Among personal influences tending to mold the pur-
pose and direct the efforts of any of his early compan-
ions who have attained to station, whether of useful-
ness or honor, I am sure a large place will be conceded
to their association more or less intimate with John M.
Bradbury, the boy and the man. I cannot recall the
time when I did not know him. The imao-e of a brio;ht,
little chubby-faced boy, with bright eyes, a quick step
and a laughing, morning face, coming to school from the
North End in old Newburyport, almost always comes
first in the retrospect of my own school days ; and I
have an impression that when scarcely more than six
or seven years of age, we were at our first man's
school, under the instruction of the late George Tit-
comb."
Dr. Wildes states that they were in the same class
and almost uniformly occupying neighboring desks in
the Latin department of the high school, where Mr.
Elias Nason afterward taught, but which was then un-
der the charge of Rev. Roger S. Howard. He repre-
sents his school-mate as a good classical scholar, but
excelling in mathematics. He also represents him as
entering into the sports of boyhood, in which his good
nature and buoyant spirits made him a universal favor-
ite. He also represents him as a well-grounded histor-
ical scholar, and says he was no less indebted to him
for guidance and help in what to him was distasteful,
BBADBUBY MEMOBIAL. 233
namely, mathematics, than for a common sympathy in
historical studies and a taste for English classics.
In April, 1835, Mr. Bradbury entered Dickinson
College at Carlisle, Penn., where he studied three years.
He went to Philadelphia, intending to go into business
there, but after a residence of six months he returned
to his native town of Newburyport, where he became
an assistant in his father's business, and held that posi-
tion over two years. In 1841, he taught a district
school in Newbury, and was subsequently appointed a
teacher in a grammar school of Newburyport, which
position he held for a ^^ear. After a year's interval he
was appointed to a similar position which he held for
six years. In May, 1849, he removed to Boston and
was appointed to a clerkship in the state treasury, and
in December, 1850, was advanced to chief clerk. He
afterward engaged with a banking firm in Boston, and
continued with them through various changes until
1868, when he retired with a competency. His busi-
ness cares did not eradicate his literary tastes. His
leisure hours were employed with books, his favorite
reading being history and belles-letters. By this means
he added constantly to his fund of information.
In September, 1868, Mr. Bradbury with his wife
visited Europe and traveled through the British Isles
and the principal countries on the continent. He spent
some time in London, engaged in historical research in
the British Museum and in the courts of probate. He^
also made frequent excursidns into the country, espec-
ially to those places where his English ancestors had
234 BBADBURY MEMOBIAL.
lived. In a letter to Mr. John Ward Dean, froin
whose obituary notice these facts concerning Mr. Brad-
bury are gleaned, he wrote : " My visit to Wicken-
Bonant was the pleasantest experience I have had in
England. The rector was away on a vacation, and I
did not therefore see the registers which would have
been a gratification, and I was indebted to the church-
warden's wife for admission to the church. You are
familiar with its appearance, both before and after res-
toration, from the photographs I have shown you. It
is a small church still, and the addition made to its
length by Mr. Sperling, the late rector, has not im-
proved its proportions. Of course the surfaces, internal
and external are new, and there is nothing to remind
the visitor of its age, except a mural tablet in the
chancel, date of 1697, and a square font standing on
five square supports, which is a veritable piece of an-
tiquity. Undoubtedly Thomas Bradbury, baptized
February 28, 1610-11, supposed to be the emigrant,
was baptized at this font. From the church our con-
ductress guided us to the Brick House, where we were
most cordially received by its proprietor, Mr. John Pol-
litt. He took us through the old mansion, pointing
out the alterations and additions which had been made,
giving us its traditions and history. He also showed
us over the grounds which are well laid out and nicely
kept, and took us to points where we could get the
best views of the house and its surroundings, as well as
of the village generally."
Mr. Bradbury returned to Boston in July, 1871, and
BRADBURY MEMORIAL. 235
resided there until the next spring, when he purchased
a place in Ipswich where he lived to the time of his
decease, which occurred on Tuesday morning, March
21, 1876. He left a widow, but no children. He be-
came a member of the New England Historical Gen-
ealogical Society in 1853, and a life member in 1863.
He served on the finance committee and also on the
board of directors. He was also a member of the
Prince Society of Boston, and of the Essex Institute
at Salem. Mr. Bradbury made valuable collections for
a genealogy of the Bradbury family, and had his health
and life been spared, it was his purpose to publish a
book on the subject. His manuscript is embodied in
this volume, and while there were many hiatuses to be
filled and some lives but little traced, it has' been of
great service to the compiler, and in fact constitutes
the larger portion of the entire volume. Mr. Brad-
bury was married August 28, 1843, to Miss Sarah Ann,
daughter of Daniel and Abigail (Sargent) Hayes of
Gloucester, a lady of cultivated taste, who appreciated
and encouraged the studies of her husband, and made
his home pleasant and attractive. For a more extend-
ed account of Mr. Bradbury, the reader is referred to
a notice in the Genealogical Register for October, 1877.

clerk and bookkeeper of the Salisbury (Avoolen) Manu-
facturing Company at Amesbury, Mass., where he re-
mained, with the exception of a single year, until 1863,
when he became associated with Dale & Robinson in
the ownership of the Dexter Woolen Mills. Mr. Brad-
bury moved with his family to Dexter in 1864, and has
since that time remained there as resident agent and
manager, which position he holds at the present time.
He took a leading part in the building of the Dexter
and Newport railroad, and has been a director since
the organization of the company. For the past two
years he has also held the position of treasurer. He
was one of the corporators of the Dexter Savings
Bank in 1867, and its president until 1888, when at
the earnest solicitation of the trustees he accepted the
position of treasurer, which position he still holds. He
also assisted in organizing the Dexter National Bank,
and has been a director from the first. He is also a
director of the Dexter Loan and Building Association.
His life has been an exceedingly busy one, and though
often urged to accept political or town office, he has
generally felt obliged to decline. He is a trustee of
the Dexter Town Library and of the School Fund. Or-
iginally a whig in politics, he aided in organizing the
republican party, and has since been one of its zealous
supporters. He is a member of the Protestant Epis-
copal church, and has been clerk of the Church of the
Messiah at Dexter since its formation in 1866. Mr.
Bradbury is genial, kind hearted and universally
respected. He married April 21, 1853, Frances Ayer,

Charles William^ Bradbury (Jobn^, Theophilus^,
Jonathan^, Theophilus*, Wymond^, Wj-moncP, Thomas^),
was born in Newbuiyport, Mass. Forced by circum-
stances to abandon a college course of study, for which
he had a strong inclination, he entered a store at a
early age, and continued in mercantile pursuits during
his life. He was a 3'Oung man of excellent character,
honest, faithful, upright in all his transactions ; decid-
edly scholarly in his tastes, he made up in part his
failure to secure a collegiate education, by dilligent
study and reading. With the English classics he be-
came thoroughly familiar, and he continued a system-
atic course of reading during his life. His course
embraced Motley, Prescott, Fronde, Bancroft, Mac-
aulay and other noted historical works. In 1877, he
and his wife visited England and the ancestral home
at Wicken-Bonant, which was a source of great enjoy-
ment. Mr. Bradbury had a love for the sea, amount-
ing to a passion. His summer vacations were sjDent
upon the New England coast, either in boating or
yachting, always accompanied by his wife, who was
equally fond of life upon the ocean wave. His ear for
music was sensitive and correct, and he had an excel-
lent bass voice. He greatly enjoyed singing old Eno--
lish ballads and songs of the sea. He was engaged in
business for the most part in New York City, but he
was much attached to his native New England and
spent all his vacations here. He died at Winchester,
Mass., December 5, 1881. Mr. Bradbury married at

General Amherst is within 50 miles of Moreal (Mon-
treal) . Rainy, cold and uncomfortable weather. An
unlucky shower of musket balls came from ye fort last
night when we were erecting a new battery, which
wounded one officer and 14 men. Engineer Warren
received a ball in his back which lodged near his back-
bone — but likely to recover. Sergeant Furbush his
right hand shot quite off, his left broke, by which
means he lost his life. Our artillery played on them
briskly last night.

The enemy attempted (to) come out against us with
their grand (not legible), but the wind drove her to-

mand of all the vessels — took a number of prisoners

guards in camp called for to go to their relief. 20 pris-
oners were taken this afternoon — three of them officers.
A shot from ye fort cut the neck bone of a young man
clean off which killed him instantly. I (was) ordered
on ye Royal Battery Guard — took 34 men with ensign

prodigious swamp within musket shot of ye fort and
ye sentries, and staid within ye batteries with Lieut.
Blakery of ye Regulars all night and all day, and by

French prizes to stay.
Aug. 27 This morning the enemy opened a battery against one
of ours, and at 6 o'clock began to play briskly — but
our 24 pounder soon stilled them. They begun to play
from all the batteries and continued very smart on
both sides until 2 o'clock. An unlucky shot from the
enemy set our magazine on fire which blew one pro-
vincial 40 feet in the air and burned his life out, killed
one regular (and) wounded others. I (am) ordered
on picket to-night with Capt. Jackson and Ensign
Childs. At two o'clock this night, there came a French
deserter which gave an account that the French had
left the island ; at four o'clock there came 15 or 20

blessing and cursing. Ordered to throw up entrench-
ments, to defend ourselves as we expected a visit from
ye enemy every day. Ordered not to entrench as we
