Bradford Immigrants to the U.S. during the
1600s
Below is a list of Bradford emigrants from 1620 to
the end of the 17th century (1699/1700).
This information comes from the book "Bradford Family History"
published
by the American Genealogical Institute in 1978 by Heritage Press, Inc.
I imagine that the only way to purchase this book is through the AGI
above
or through Heritage Press since it's no longer available in book
stores.
You may be able to find a copy in a rare/used bookstore however. The
address
for the AGI in 1978 is:
American Genealogical Research Institute
1235 Kenilworth Avenue, N. E.
Washington, DC 20019
If you know of a Bradford emmigrant from any time period, email
me the information and I will add it, be sure to try to include
where
they came from as well as where they immigranted to and the date of
immigration.
Include any other info you would like, ship name, their spouse or
children,
etc.
