Hi again!

I have recently received more info regarding Bradley family. My George Charles Bradley's death certificate states he was aged 60 yrs and 3 mths at time of death in 1892. This would make him born 1832 and not 1834 as previously stated. George also spent 23 yrs in Victoria and Sth Australia, before he headed to QLD where he is buried. George obviously migrated to Australia with his parents when he was a 7 yr old boy. This also means his parents John Bradley and Elizabeth (nee Nash) are buried in Australia and not in England.(where I was previously searching)

I have a few people who are looking at resources for me - somewhere they will turn up I hope. I am still curious to find where they lived in England, even tho George claims to be born in Birmingham.

Cheers!

Hi Lesley,

Great news on your find, well done! Of course this probably opens up a whole new set of questions as to what happened to John & Elizabeth Bradley for you!  I had a look and didn't turn up anything new through my searches.  Hopefully some others with better Australian resources can come through for you :-)  Cyndi's list may have some new resources?  http://www.cyndislist.com/

 

Cheers,

Julia

Hi Julia, thanks for the reply - yes, will keep looking for the elusive Bradley family. I also had a friend contact some people with Evans family trees (as I am not a subsciber to ancestry) so hopefully something more will turn up there as well! I shall let you know if something more comes along - they cannot hide forever (I hope!)

Cheers!
