I am not related to this family, I am just passing on this information, which comes from a book titled "A Genealogical Register of the Inhabitants of the Town of Litchfield, Conn." by George C. Woodruff.

Thank you so much for posting this, Joyce. Here are some additional details for this family:

[1] The information that Horace Bradley married Hannah Twichell or Twitchell is correct. There is an error in the Town of Litchfield Vital Records showing Hannah's maiden name as Hawkins; that was her mother's maiden name. A number of genealogy books correctly list Hannah Twitchell, and Hannah's brother Benjamin Starr Twitchell named Hannah's children as his nephews and nieces in his will in Chenango County, New York, where the Bradley and Twitchell families migrated.

[2] Horace and Hannah had 10 children in Litchfield, starting with Leaming Hawkins Bradley on 10 Oct 1808 and continuing through Amelia Grace Bradley born in January 1634. Many migrated to Chenango County, New York, but two of them, Leaming H. Bradley and John Bradley, migrated to Wisconsin.

[3] Mary Ann's first husband Henry Wadsworth died in 1830. Dr. Abel Hannah's wife Polly Kilbourn died 17 Apr 1834. Abel and Mary Ann then married. Sources: The history and antiquities of the name and family of Kilbourn and Higginson journal No 61

Aaron Bradley served two enlistments during the Revolutionary War, and is DAR Patriot Ancestor #:A013451. Five of his descendants have become DAR members.
