This was a wonderful read about our Bradley lineage. I am a descendant of William Bradley (1545-1600) our line of Bradley's went through his son Daniel I believe. Daniel served in the Parliamentary Army under Oliver Cromwell. This line came to America in 1635 on the ship "Elizabeth" and settled in Haverhill, South Carolina. Thank your for doing the legwork past William Bradley, I had much trouble finding anything that far back that had any substance.

I am afraid this Genalogy of the Bradlee's being descendants from the High Kinds is wrong. They are descendants of the ancient Kings of Kent. I will write another blog correcting this.

Hey Quinn, this is a tremendous background of our family. I’m a direct descendant of Josiah Bradlee, part of the tea party gang.

My Bradlee/ Bradlee's go back to 1183 England. I am related to Ben Bradlee, Quin's father. Nathaniel Bradlee was my 5 th ggf who held the meeting for the Boston Tea Party in his home he built in 1771. Sarah Bradlee Fulton made the Mohawk Indian costumes for the men to throw the tea overboard. My grandma was a Bradlee.
