JOHN BRADLEY (deceased). John Bradley, the subject of this sketch was born August 12, about the year 1812, in Madison County, Ohio. He was a son of Jonah and Susan Bradley, who emigrated from Virginia and settled in Madison County at an early day. He was reared to manhood on a farm, and received a rudimentary education in a district school. He married Miss Sarah A. Jones, born December 29, 1822, in Madison County. She was a daughter of Zachariah and Elizabeth Jones, who emigrated from Tennessee to Madison County at quite an early day. This union has been blessed with seven children, viz., Calvin, Elizabeth A., Arthur, Charles S., Emma, Albert and Martha A., the latter two of whom are deceased. Mr. Bradley left to his family a large estate of about 1,100 acres of land, and departed this life in February, 1874. He was an indulgent father and a kind and affectionate husband, and respected by all who knew him. His widow survives him, and resides on her homestead in the southern portion of Monroe Township.
