William Preston Bradbury b. about 1831
« on: Wednesday 06 August 14 21:51 BST (UK) »
The above William Bradbury was my g g uncle. I understand he emigrated to Australia in about 1855, I think to Broken Hill,  NSW. I think he had several children but dont think they all survived. I'd be really interested to hear from anyone who is descended from him.
