Carl, your Harris Bradford was correct...I read it wrong, sorry...

Okay, I've got some more fill in's for you..
Go to George Bradford, B Sept 6, 1753 Orange, son of David Bradford and
MaryAn Hamilton.

George married Mary Hamilton on June 10, 1774 in Orange Co he died before
July 1812 in Jackson Co, Georgia. She was born May 1757 and died 1855 in
Georgia.
Their children were:
Eldora Bradford ( Female) born March 31, 1776 in Orange
John B. Bradford, B Nov 12, 1777 Orange married July 9, 1812 Elizabeth
William born July 11, 1779
Martha born Jan 6, 1781
Archibald born Dec 21, 1782
David born Nov 7, 1784
Mary Born Sept 24, 1786
Joseph B. born May 19, 1790
Nancy Born July 11, 1792
James C. born June 22, 1794

Earlier I sent to you the children of James Bradford B 1816, Orange to David
Bradford... whose wife was Nancy L. Bird
Their son was William Henry Bradford, born Aug 16, 1849 in Orange, married
Lucy J. Coleman who was born Sept 16, 1857, died April 24, 1935 in Lawrence
Co, Missouri and who was the daughter of John S. Coleman and Lucy A. Smith.
The children of William and Lucy were:

Lucy Bradford, B Oct 21, 1873 in Marshfield, Webster Co, Missouri; died Oct
1971 in Sweet Springs, Missouri and married a (?) Forbes.
Lula A. Bradford, B 1876 in Marshfield, Webster Co, Missouri
Nancy H. Bradford, B 1878 in Marshfield

The third child of James Bradford and Nancy Bird was Elizabeth Catherine
Bradford. She was born several months after her father's death on Sept 20,
1851 Alamance Co, NC. She married James Thomas Morris on Jan 19, 1871. She
died on Nov 29, 1935 in Marshfield. Their children were:
Lucy Morris married xxx Shepard
George L. Morris
Ida J. Morris B 1872 married 1896 to J. Frank Callaway died 1902 all in
Marshfield, Webster Co, Missouri
William S. Morris B 1873 died 1958 married to Nannie
David Morris born Sept 27, 1876
James Franklin Morris born Oct 6, 1877 died Feb 21, 1930 (Marshfield)
married to Daisy Atkinson and Ethel Cutter
Nancy Annie Morris born April 28, 1880
Ernest Morris bMay 31, 1886, D Dec 18, 1902 Marshfield

Oh, let's talk about the Hamilton family. Does anyone out there know about
the Hamilton's? The first intermarriage seems to be a MaryAm, who was born
about 1730. We then have a Mary Hamilton born about 1750, who married the
son of MaryAm.
We then have an Elizabeth Hamilton married to Thomas Bradford. Elizabeth
was the daughter of William Hamilton who died in June 1791 in Orange Co.
His children were:
Nancy Hamilton, B 1764 who we know married Thomas Bird on Dec 23, 1824 and
whom I suspect was first married to William Bradford. She died on May 1,
1858 in Alamance.
Margaret Hamilton who married John Douglass on July 14, 1792 in Orange.
Jane Hamilton B 1784, Orange
and Joseph Hamilton.

Does anyone out there know the connection between all of these Hamilton's?
I believe that William Hamilton had a brother, Archibald Hamilton, whose
son, Archibald married Frances Fanny Bird on Oct 7, 1807.
