Greetings to you all, 
I have an ELEANOR BRADLEY born approximately 1849 to William and Lucy Bradleys of Worcester. Eleanor married JAMES ANDERSEN (of Denmark) in 1865 and had several children. Her daughter LUCY CAROLINE ANDERSON (born in Liverpool in 1873) later married ROBERT MATTHEW ROBERTSON in Liverpool in 1897.
Lucy's siblings icluded Edron (Edwin), Charles, George, James and Mary.
I would like to find out more about the Bradley(s) side of the family if there is any connection with any of your family trees.
Best Regards from Western Australia

Hello Philrob 
I'm not connected to this family, but I just did a look-up for them.
In 1881 Eleanor says she was born 1839 in Shipston on Stour, Worcestershire.
I have found an Elenor Bradley b. 1839 with her family in both 1841 census and 1851, but her parents are Edwin and Lucy, not William and Lucy 
Is this the right person do you think, or should I look again?
Where did the name of Eleanor's father come from ?

Dear Mum 44 and Jim 1212,
I am astonished that I have received such a fast reply (just over one hour!) to my first posting on this forum - thank you both very much.
My info re William came from a family member who had completed an investigation into the family history several years ago. I do believe that most of that searching was done by word of mouth so there are probably some holes in the findings. I have to say that I do not have definite proof of Eleanor's parents being William and Lucy.
What I have found particularly interesting is that Mum44 has used both the names for the parents as being Edwin and Lucy which appear in the next generation. This seems to be without checking probably more likely to be correct.
Thank you both for your interest and thought provoking answers.
Best Regards,
Philrob from Western Australia

Hi,
I think her father's name is Edron, both christenings are extracted records on the IGI,
Edron BRADLEY
Christening: 25 JAN 1788 Shipston-On-Stour, Worcester
Father: Daniel BRADLEY
Mother: Betty
OR
Edson BRADLEY
Christening: About 18 JUL 1788 Shipston-On-Stour, Worcester
Father: Edson BRADLEY
Mother: Elizabeth
Edron BRADLY
Spouse: Lucy BRADLY
Marriage: 24 MAY 1824 Shipston-On-Stour, Worcester
Eleanor BRADLEY
Age: 26
Father's Name: Edron BRADLEY
Spouse: James ANDERSON
Age: 28
Father's Name: Nelson ANDERSON
Marriage : 12 Oct 1865, Edge Hill, Lancashire
Looking at the 1871 & 1881 census for Eleanor ANDERSON it looks like she named her eldest son after her father,
Birth
Edron ANDERSON Sep Q 1866 West Derby 8b 512
Regards
Daisy

Dear Mum44, Jim 1212 and Daisypetal,
Thank you for your interest and wonderful discussion. I have sent off this morning for the marriage certificate for Eleanor. It should be here in about two to three weeks. I will post information on the site after it arrives from UK.
Thanks again for your efforts,

Thanks Mum44
I just wish I could find his death, I've looked on the images from 1851 to 1861 under BRADLEY and BRADLY but can't see him at all, maybe a bad mistranscription of his name or I just missed it 
I have found this death,
Edron BRADLEY Mar Q 1850 Shipston On Stour 11 335
but I think he is the 'other' Edron living here in 1841, HO107/120/12 f.26 p.8 Shipston On Stour.

Hi Phil
I have just registered with Rootschat and was interested to hear that you want to find our more about the Bradleys from Worcester. I too am researching this family, in particular Caroline, Eleanor Bradley's elder sister. I have some information on Eleanor that might be of interest. Now you have the marriage cert. you know that her father was Edron Bradley and her mother was Lucy Bradley (yes same surname).
Eleanor was born on 5 March 1839 in Shipston on Stour (I have her birth cert). She moved to Liverpool as according to the 1861 census she was working for the Fisher family in Liverpool who were West Indian Merchants. She went on to marry James Anderson from Denmark (as you know) and had 10 children (that I know of). She died on 31 July 1907 and is buried in Toxteth Cemetery, Liverpool with 4 of her children Maria Catherine, George Henry, Frederick, Charles Henry and her nephew Albert. Also her mother Lucy who died in August 1891 aged 97.
Best wishes
hilbe
