Hi, I have the CD for Westley Waterless and can confirm that Ann Bradford was baptised 9/9/1806. Parents Richard and Letitia;siblings William 8/11/1804;Richard 11/6/1809. Anything else you want to know about Westley Waterless just let me know and I will look it up for you. My ancestors came from this village.

Hello paco and thank you very much that's great.

I'm fairly certain now that this is the right family. I think there were a lot of Bradfords in Westley, but it's such a small place, they must have been the same extended family. I think she is the only one who fits the dates and her stating Westley as her birth-place in all the census.

Thank you again

There are quite a lot of them on the CD.

Do you think they are from the same family? Is there anything for Richard Bradford b. 1777 I think, possibly father Walter and mother Ann?

Thank you for your help paco

No, I am afraid there isn't a Richard Bradford baptism on Westley Waterless CD. I think he might have come from Dullingham, Cambridge as there is a Richard Bradford baptised there 9/1/1777, and a marriage to Leticia Jaggard at Dullingham 14/12/1803. There is a Walter and Ann Bradford family on WW CD with children between 1744 and 1756, so could be an earlier connection. Children are Thomas 15/4/1744;Walter 12/5/1745;Elizabeth 8/12/1751;Matthew 8/2/1756.
regards.

Thanks so much paco for taking the time to help me!

May I ask if it says who the parents of Richard Bradford (1777) Dullingham are? And any witnesses at the marriage to Leticia?

Thank you once more

Parents of Richard Bradford were Walter and Ann.

Witnesses to the marriage of Richard and Leticia were Mary Bridge;Sarah Bradford and Thomas Chapman.

Richard and Leticia had a son called Richard who was baptised on the 11th June 1809 WW, but he died, and was buried on the 22nd November 1809.

Richard Bradford senior died aged 34 years on the 26th November 1810, and was buried 29th November 1810 at St Augustine, Burrough Green, Cambs. It says of Westley, so I am pretty sure it is him. I found all of this info. on findmypast.

regards.

Hello paco, sorry for delayed reply. Thank you for your help! I am now trying to make sense of the information I have. So many names, and so many villages close to each other.

You have been wonderful, thank you !

Hello,

I am also seeking further information on the Bradfords of Westley Waterless. The lady in question is Anne Bradford born c 1782 (Westley Waterless) who married George Radford on 2 Jan 1803 in Westley Waterless. Any further information through birth dates or their marriage is greatly appreciated. They appear to have settled in Brinkley to raise their family.

Thanking you in advance.
