Hi K, welcome to the site. I wouldn't discount Colne for these events. I have one family who travelled to Colne for a couple of baptisms in the early 1800's. Can anyone say were Bradley is/was? It rings a bell but I cannot place it. |

I think Bradley is a part of Nelson that covers the areas of Scotland Road,Reedyford Road, and Leeds Road when I lived in Nelson during the local Elections that area was Bradley Ward.I will ask my husband he was born in Nelson sues |
