Sarah Loretta Bradley was born in Howick, Huron County, Ontario in 1860. She was my maternal Great Grandmother on my Mother’s side. Her parents, Samuel Bradley and Charlotte Tackaberry seem to have died when she was just a baby as she was taken in and raised by The Chamneys of Elizabethtown township who may also have been relatives. She married twice. The first marraige was to James Henry Craig on May 3, 1881 in Elizabethtown. The second marriage was to my Great Grandfather, Jemuel Connell on Feb 23, 1887. She lived to be 84 years of age.

I’ve just uncovered evidence indicating Sarah Loretta Bradley was born in Howick, in Huron County, Ontario and not Leeds County as I had suspected. This could well open up the possibility of finally locating her parents, Samuel Bradley and Charlotte Tackaberry.
For many years I have searched in vain for Sarah’s parents in Leeds and surrounding area. No wonder I couldn’t find them.
The document that cracks open this new door is the record of Sarah’s first marriage to James Henry Craig.
