Lydia was the daughter of Henry and Ann Cloe, was born in Stafford County, Virginia, who removed to Kentucky in 1816 and in 1831 took the family to Vermillon County, Ilinois. That was a year before the Black Hawk War occurred. In 1832 she became the wife of Gilbert Cloe, who died in 1833, leaving a daughter Narcissus, who is now the widow of William London and resides at Carson, Iowa. In the 1840's, Isaac Brady arrived in Marion County, Iowa, after having spent some time in Vermillion county, Illinois. It was there he was married in 1836 to Lydia. Three children were born to them in that state. In 1845 they left Illinois for Iowa, casting in their lot with the pioneer settlers of Marion County in a day when the government owned much of the land.
Mr. Brady secured a claim on Section 35, Knoxville Township, a part of which is now owned by his son Issac Brady. The family shared in all the hardships and privations incident to settlement upon the western frontier and participated in transforming the county from a wild and undeveloped region into one of the most populous and prosperous sections of the state.
