Henry did not leave a will, but gave power of attorney on September 20,1779, to Benjamin Alexander. Benjamin was requested to take his sons, Elijah and Joshua from James Bradley and find work or otherwise for them, to take care of them and of his Estate, real and personal, including the proper care of his negro winch, Dinah, until he could appear in person. Henry is listed in a couple of land deeds in 1783 and one in 1787. In the latter, his sister Elizabeth and her husband, Issac Alexander, sold land.
Children of Henry Jr. and Mary Giles are;
1. Elijah Alexander Bradley,b 1766,York County,Pennsylvania; d.September 12,1839,Jackson County,illinois; m. Esther,Meeklenburg,P.A. Notes for Elijah Alexander Bradley; Elijah Alexander, born about 1766, he was in Mecklenburg County in 1778 and still there when his dad died in 1791, but was living in York County, by 1794 when his brother deeded him his share of their fathers estate there, and a silver watch. I am assuming that his brother Joshua, got the part of their fathers estate which remained in North Carolina, in July sessions of Common pleas court in Mecklenburg County, 1793, Henry`s estate was administered by Joshua Bradley.
2. William Bradley,b. 1768. 3. Joshua Bradley,b. 1769,Mecklenburg,North Carolina; d. JUne 09,1839,Jackson County,Illinois ( Gillespie Cemetery).
More will be added when more is researched.
