I just received all my emails for the last 4 months
from the Bradford group, all at once. Strange!

Anyway, I am looking for any Bradford who was in
Schoharie County, NY, in 1812. This family had a
daughter, Betsey Maria, on June 20, 1812, in Blenheim
Twp. She later (1833) married Nelson Wells in Chemung
Co., NY, and they lived in Tioga Co., PA, (hidden
under the name Wills in 1850), went to Joliet, Will
County, IL before 1860, where Nelson died. Betsey
stayed there with children for awhile, but I find she
died on 9 June 1891 in Wellsboro, Tioga Co., PA. She
and Nelson were in Cass County, Michigan for a short
while in 1855 and I believe they had relatives there.
By the 1880 census, I learn Betsey's father was born
CT and her mother born in VT. In mature years Betsey
went by the name of Elizabeth

Any help appreciated greatly.
