Bradley family Ruardean 1600-1700 (General)

by stephenmiller @, Sunday, May 03, 2009, 11:07 (5756 days ago)

Trying to trace the parents of Mary bradley baptised 1666 ruardean. (Mary went on to marry John Vaughan 1687 Ruardean.) The baptism record has the father as Francis and a mother 'M'....does anyone have a marriage between a Francis and an 'M'?
I assume that Francis was baptised 1635 parents William and Margaret - but I cannot find Margarets maiden name. Can anyone help or have any further information on the Bradley family ruardean in this time line?

The will of Francis Bradley is on the site, this may cause you to look again at who Mary Bradley married.

Help needed yet again!!!.......this relates to my previous post with regards the Bradley family from Ruardean but I wanted to be more specific!
I have on my tree Mary Bradley marrying John Vaughan in Walford 1687 - the parish records state they are both from Ruardean. The only baptism record that I can find is Mary Bradley baptised Ruardean 1666 to a father Francis Bradley baptised Ruardean 1635......this is where the problem lies! On the site there is a Will section which has the will of Francis Bradley - but in the will it states his daughter is MARY WILLIAMS and not MARY VAUGHAN!!!
I have found a Mary Bradley who married William Williams 1699 Abenhall - stating that Mary is a widow and this is therefore her second marriage - this would therefore all tie in BUT...... Mary and John had chilren in 1701(Richard Vaugan) and 1704
So it seems that Mary Bradley baptised 1666 was not the mary who married john Vaughan......so does anyone have the baptism record of 'my' Mary Bradley who married John Vaughan in 1687?
Can anyone help me unravel this - it would be very much appreciated

There is a marriage on the IGI between George Williams & Mary Bradley on 23 November 1707 at English Bicknor, unfortunately the parish register for this period doesn`t exist.

Are you sure that the Francis Bradley who wrote the will is Mary's father and not her brother?

I am pretty sure Francis is Marys father and not her brother as all of the children listed in the will were born c1660-1670.
