| Notes |
- Thomas Bradbury has two notable lines of royal descent. One from Alfred the Great and the other from Charlemagne. His coat-of-arms is enrolled as 139.
The Bradbury family of early New England (Thomas Bradbury and Mary Perkins) has been traced through the Bradbury line all the way back to Charlemagne, King of the Franks, born in the year 742. For detailed information, see the book, The Ancestry of Thomas Bradbury and his wife Mary Perkins, by John Brooks Threlfall.
Thomas Bradbury was from Wicken Bonhunt, Essex, England, baptised in 1610/11, the son of Wymond Bradbury and Elizabeth Whitgift. He married Mary Perkins about 1636 and lived in Salisbury, Massachusetts.He was made a freeman in 1640. He was constable, schoolmaster, town clerk, Captain of the military, and a deputy to the general court for seven years. His graceful handwriting appears in many documents in the archives of Essex county, Massachusetts.
His wife, Mary Perkins was accused of witchcraft in 1692 and in spite of testimonies to her excellent character, she was convicted at
the age of 77, but she was not executed.
Thomas died in March 1694/95, and Mary died on Dec 20, 1700. Their daughter Jane Bradbury born in 1645 married Henry True, son of Henry True and Israil Pike.
