Robert Bradford owns and occupies a farm in Pontiac Township, where a pleasant home and comfortable surroundings are found. The estate consists of eighty acres on section 26 and has been the home of our subject since 1855, at which time he bought the land and began tilling the soil on his own account. Mr. Bradford was born in West Killbride, Ayreshire, Scotland, August 8, 1827. His father, John Bradford, was a native of Wigtun and was a stonemason by trade; his mother was Elizabeth Gemmill and the family consisted of four children, three of whom are now living. The parents came to this country in 1842 and made their settlement in Pontiac Township, this county, on section 26. The father built three houses -- one for himself, one in Troy Township and another near Orchard Lake, and gave some attentions to his trade. He died in 1849 and his widow breathed her last in 1858. They were members of the Congregational Church.

Mr. Bradford of this sketch received a common school education in his native land, conning his lessons in the parish school where the same teacher was generally employed year after year. He accompanied his parents to America and remained with them until he was about twenty-six years old. He then started out in life for himself and a few years later bought the property on which he is now prosecuting his agricultural work. He was married in March 28, 1854, to miss Maria Colby, who was born in this county in 1829, and whose parents, Ephraim and Melinda (Allen) Colby, are numbered among the pioneers. Mr. Colby died many years ago, but Mrs. Colby is still living. Mrs. Bradford was called from time to eternity in August, 1874. The surviving children are Sarah; Agnes, who is the wife of Murry Vancise, and resides in Huron County, Michigan; Mary, widow of Charles Springer; John, Hattie and Frank.

Mr. Bradford is quite a prominent member of the Republican party in this locality and has advanced its interest as a delegate to county and State conventions. He served as Supervisor of Pontiac Township one term, and filled the duties of the office in a creditable manner. The earnestness and thrift of the true Scotchman are manifested in his life and he is held in such respect as his character merits.
