MILITARY RANK Originally shown as PVT, I have updated these records per his military records which shows he was a Quarter Master (QM) upon discharge per Post War Records..
PLACE OF BIRTH It has been noted that there is a discrepancy between his military records, marriage records, and the 1900 US Census Records . While William L. Bradford's military records shows he was born in Philadelphia, Pa as does his marriage records, the 1900 US Census records indicate he was born in Delaware. Because of the discrepancy, his Find A Grave memorial will remain as first shown in Shenandoah County Military Records and his marriage records as Philadelphia, PA. .
Married Amanda Emswiller on 22 Mar 1868 in Shenandoah County, VA. daughter of Jacob and Elizabeth Myers Emswiller
