The deceased was born in Eastern New York, August 9, 1805, and was the only son of James Bradley. Of his early life, we know but little. December 20, 1827, he was united in marriage to Nancy C. Knox, who survives him, and with whom he lived happily for over fifty-two years. He moved to this county June 14, 1852, and settled near Livingston, where he remained a short time, and then moved to this place.
He united with the M. E. church in 1829, and was always a great lover of the denomination, and has always been one of its most efficient members. He was an estimable citizen, a kind and loving husband, indulgent and good father, and what can be said of but few in the general acceptation of the term, he was a good and true man, was endeared and loved by every one who knew him.
He leaves an aged companion, four sons,--Dr. R. H. and Stephen of this place, and Isaac and L. H. of Springfield, and one daughter, the wife of Henry Plasters, of this place. Thus one by one the aged and the good pass away.
