May 4th 1880 thusly 28 to 35 years old over the writings) of Plymouth, Massachusetts. Mr. Bradford, as identified in gilt lettering on the red leather cover, appears to be an esteemed member of the community given the number of important events and meetings he attends, the clubs he frequents and his activities whether at home or traveling. He appears to travel between Plymouth, Boston and Jabez Corners. A casual reading finds he worked as the Deputy Collector of the Customs House and may have also at some point worked in the coal and wool industries. Further research suggests his father was Edward Winslow Bradford who married Miss Janet A. Ellis in 1875. The Bradford name via Edward Winslow traces back to the Mayflower.The years 1909, 1913, 1914 and 1916 and besides recording births and deaths of friends and family and notables he also provides a super look at the pre War era of a young family man enjoying a life of family and friends and high society life.
