I am looking for assistance, please. What were the names of HARRIS
BRADFORD and MARY PRUETT's children?

I have 2 suspects = Levi & James C. Bradford ~ and ~
1 hit - Absolem - land recorded in Madison Co., TN from Harris to "my
beloved son Absolem"...

Who were the others?

Absolem Bradford married Margaret ?? children's names??

Is this right??

1 Absolem Bradford b: Abt. 1797 in NC (1850 census Gibson Co., TN)
. + Margaret b: Abt. 1804 in NC m: Abt. 1823

The 1st 4 were enumerated separately in Gibson Co., TN in the 1850
census... and I suspect to be their children.

..2 Harris T. W. Bradford b: 1824 in TN. << living w/Thomas & Mariah
....+ Amanda Gillespie m: May 10, 1854 in Gibson Co., TN
..2 Spencer Bradford b: 1825 in TN.

James C. Bradford was also living in Gibson Co. in 1850 with what
appears to be a younger second wife - - -
