Seeking ANCESTORS of WILEY BRADFORD BROWN, my great-grandfather. Since
his middle name is BRADFORD, I am guessing there is a Bradford family
somewhere in his ancestry.

Information about Wiley Bradford Brown and his 3 siblings:

Wiley Bradford BROWN, born April 14, 1849, Illinois. Also lived in
Wisconsin, Kansas, and Iowa before marriage. Married Anna Mary MOYER,
daughter of F. Xerxes MOYER and Marianna RINDLE, November 3, 1885, in
Tama, Iowa. Moved to Auburn, Washington area, then to Lexington/Kelso,
Washington area. Was a farmer. Died about July 23, 1913, Lexington,
Washington.
