Fathers BIO: PETER W. BRADLEY was born in Colchester, Delaware county, New York, June 7, 1834, a son of Elijah and Catherine (Williams) Bradley, of that county. He assisted his father on the farm until he was twenty-two years of age.
In September, 1856, he married Maria Rowe, a daughter of Samuel and Emily (Scudder) Rowe, of Delaware county, New York, who bore him one child that died in infancy.
Mrs. Bradley died in September, 1857, and on October 20, 1859, he married Calista M. Tilford, a daughter of Daniel Tilford, of Delaware county.
Six children were born to this marriage, viz:

About 1879 Mr. Bradley came to Tioga county and purchased a farm in Shippen township, on which Zura Baker now lives.
Here he resided up to 1885, when he sold it and purchased sixty-three acres on the east side of Marsh creek, which he has since made his home, having cleared the land and erected substantial buildings.
