After some research, information is fairly widely available  concerning parts of his life. He was educated at Rotherham College; ordained as  pastor of Doncaster Congregational Church on 17 September 1800; moved to Mosley  Street Chapel Manchester 11 November 1801. Whilst here he was severely critisised for the introduction and use of an organ to provide music during  services! On 23 September 1806 he became one of the founders of the Lancashire  Congregational Union, and the Union`s first secretary (1806-08). In 1827 he  moved to Cannon Street Chapel, which was enlarged shortly afterwards. He resided  in Falkner Street, Cheetwood, Manchester for most of his life and married Helen Bellhouse (the Bellhouse family were prominent in Manchester at the time). The  reason is not known, but Samuel resigned from the ministry in April 1844, although he appeared to  keep the title &#8216;Rev`d&#8217;. He was at some time a member of the Itinerant Society.  He died in Hulme, Manchester in 1860 aged 83.   Many thanks to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.manchester.gov.uk\/info\/448\/archives_and_local_history\" class=\"ek-link\">Manchester Archives and Local Studies <\/a>for help with this research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Extract from &#8216;The Story of the \nLancashire Congregational Union 1806-1906 Centenary Memorial Volume&#8217;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8216;Men who have served&#8217;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8216;Rev. Samuel Bradley (1806-8)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mr Bradley was the first Secretary of \nthe Union, being appointed with the Committee and Treasurer on September 23rd, \n1806, at the meeting at which the Union was born. He had been minister of the \nMosley Street Chapel, in whose vestry the Union found its birthplace, since \n1801, and fully sympathised with Mr Roby in his Evangelistic ideals. He had \njoined him in the Itinerant Society, visiting and preaching at various stations \nfrom time to time. He retained the Secretarial position for two years only, but \nhis interest in the work of the Union did not wane. His Church was at the time \nthe highest contributor to its funds, sending \u00a351 11s. 6d. out of a total income \nof \u00a3365 3s. 61\/2d., Mr Roby`s coming next with \u00a350. It is interesting to note \nhow these two Manchester Churches, in the matter of contributions for the Union, \nappear to have been engaged for several years in a little friendly rivalry, and \nhow nearly they approached one another, Mr Roby`s Church one year raising \u00a344 \n1s. 21\/2d and Mr Bradley`s \u00a344 1s. 03\/4d.! Subsequently, however, the Mosley \nStreet Church contributions fell considerably, whilst those of Mr Roby`s Church \nkept their high level. Mr Bradley`s ministry at Mosley Street continued for more \nthan a quarter of a century.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Towards the end he appears to have had \nsome trouble through the introduction of an organ into the chapel, which had \njust been enlarged. One of his deacons sent the following letter to the Church, \nwhich makes curious reading today, and whose arguments are somewhat of a puzzle; \n&#8220;As you have, together with your preacher, Mr Samuel Bradley, determined to \nintrude a costly organ upon the public worship of God, contrary to the usual \ncustom of the place, an innovation not only unnecessary, but against the express \ncommandment of the Lord in Coloss. ii. 21-23 &#8216;Touch not, taste not, handle not,&#8217; \netc., I henceforth shall no more, either as deacon or member, unite in your \nworship. I cannot conscientiously join with any worshipping assembly where \ninstrumental music is used; should I do so, to me it would be sin.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This letter was dated January 2nd, \n1823, and it is a singular coincidence that in that year the Rev. John Adamson, \nwho had recently removed to Charlesworth from Patricroft, near Manchester, \nissued a pamphlet, in which he fulminated terribly against the use of musical \ninstruments in public worship, employing the following arguments in support of \nhis position-<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1. Instruments of music were <em>\nnever used, even among the Jews, in the ordinary worship \nof the Sabbath Day.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2. When instruments were used by the Jews <em>in the \nworship of God, they were accompanied with sacrifice and dancing. <\/em>Hence \nadvocates for it in the New Testament Churches, to be consistent, ought to <em>\ndance<\/em> as well as <em>play<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3. Instrumental music <em>\nwas neither admitted into the Apostolic Churches, nor into those that succeeded \nthem for more than seven hundred years.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>4. Instrumental music in the worship of God <em>\nis a custom derived from the idolatrous Church of Rome.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>5. The Churches which made the greatest progress in \nreformation <em>laid instruments of music entirely \naside.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>6. Instruments of music should never be admitted into a \nplace of worship, because wherever they are admitted they produce a train of the \nmost lamentable evils.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is scarcely necessary to say that these zealous and \nwell-meaning friends fought a vain battle, and, though the last sounds of it had \nscarcely died away before the present generation were born, the organ won. \nWhether this trouble had anything to do with Mr Bradley`s removal is not clear, \nbut in 1826 he resigned and became pastor of Cannon Street Church, where he \nlaboured for eighteen years, when he retired. He is described as &#8220;a most \neloquent preacher.&#8221; He did much to build up Manchester Congregationalism, and \nthrough it the Congregationalism of the county.`<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A really interesting find through the internet provided \nan exciting moment for me when it was discovered from a Bradley surname interest in a \nGenealogy site that a lady in California was sharing information concerning a \nfamily bible\/prayer book that she had purchased some years ago in an antique \nshop in California. She had thought it would be nice to return it to its \n&#8216;family&#8217;. This turned out to belong to Rev`d Samuel Bradley and listed his wife \nand children inside the cover. Also included was a very old newspaper cutting of \nan obituary for George Ashton who had lived in New Jersey and who, it is now \nconfirmed married Helen, Samuel`s daughter.&nbsp; Also written on the inside of \nthe front cover was the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8216;To the dear fountain of thy blood, Incarnate God I \nfly, Here let me wash my spotted soul From crimes of deepest dye. Saml. Bradley \n&#8211; April 16th 1856 My unshaken hope&#8217;.&nbsp;&nbsp; It is interesting to wonder if \nthis is in some ways a &#8216;confession&#8217;. This is dated just 4 years before his death \nand of course he had resigned from the ministry!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Samuel married Helen Bellhouse in the Collegiate \nChurch, now Manchester Cathedral, on 14 June 1808.&nbsp; They had 6 children:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Jane&nbsp; <\/strong>(b. 1809 Manchester &#8211; d.1854) married \nher first cousin Samuel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Mary <\/strong>(b.1811- ?)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Thomas<\/strong> (b.1813-d.1813)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Helen <\/strong>(b.1814 Manchester -d. 1889 New Brunswick, \nNew Jersey) married (by her father) George Ashton 25th November 1840 at Cannon \nSt. Chapel.&nbsp; Their children were Kate (b. 1849), \nHelen (b. 1851), Lucy (b. 1853), Annie (b. 1854) and George F (b. 1856).&nbsp; \nThis family kept in touch with George`s sister Betsy who had married William \nLatham, brother to John who married Jemima Bradley.&nbsp; There are copies of \nletters, one dated 7th March 1885 from daughter Helen Ashton in New Jersey to \nher cousin Jessie, daughter of Betsy and William. Helen states that Jessie might \nbe surprised to hear from her rather than &#8216;Mamma&#8217;, as Mamma is not at all well \nand that her Papa is very sick too. (George dies that same year). Sister Kate \nwho is married at this time, apparently visits every day. Then on 15th October \nHelen herself writes to Betsy describing her husband George`s last days and also \nenquiring after Betsy`s daughter Annie who apparently had suffered burns of some \nsort.&nbsp; These copy letters have been forwarded from members of the Latham \nfamily in Australia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Obituary for George Ashton<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8216;George Ashton, whose death occurred at New Brunswick, \nN.J. on the 10th inst. was for many years prominently identified with the dry \ngoods importing commission business in this city, and many of our older \nmerchants bear kindly remembrance of the energetic activity, strict integrity \nand unfailing courtesy displayed in all his business and social relations. He \nwas born in Manchester, Eng. in 1807, came to this country while a young man, \nbecame a partner in the importing house of Bird, Gillilan &amp; Co. and afterward \nthe head of the firm of Ashton &amp; Gillilan, until through ill health he retired \nfrom active business in June, 1857. For some fifteen years past he has resided \nat New Brunswick, and has been a great invalid, but never ceased to take a \nlively interest in the many friends whom he had in this country and in England, \nand bore his long continued illness with the truly Christian resignation and \nfortitude by which he had always been characterized. He leaves a widow, four \ndaughters, and one son.&#8217; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Both George`s and Helen`s Wills have been obtained and \na copy of the 1870 census for New Brunswick, New Jersey showing the whole family \nat home with the children, Kate 21, Helen 19, Lucy 17, Annie 16 and George F. \n14. Also census returns for 1850 (including Jemima aged 2 months) 1860 in New \nYork. In 1880 the family have moved to New \nBrunswick. George has left home and is in San Francisco as a bookkeeper. In 1880 \nKate appears still in New Brunswick and married to Warren Hardenburgh, possibly \na widower. In 1900 Helen, Lucy and Annie along with sister Kate Hardingburgh and \nher daughter Helen A are still in New Brunswick. Note different spellings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>George (jnr) married Bessie M Raymond in 1884 in San \nFrancisco.&nbsp; They had 3 children, Helena Howard Ashton (1885), Raymond \n(1886) and Bessie (1888).&nbsp; George died 1899 and is buried in New York \nGreenwood Cemetery.&nbsp; In 1900&nbsp; Bessie and her 3 children are boarders \nin Broadway St. in San Francisco and the 3 children are at school.&nbsp; In 1910 \nthe family are still together and living on Pacific Avenue in San Francisco. \nRaymond is a Mechanical Engineer. There is a WW1 Draft Reg. Card for Raymond \nwhich lists his Mother and sister as sole dependents, and he is described as \n&#8216;tall, slender, blue eyes, light brown hair and nearly bald&#8217;.&nbsp; In 1920 \nRaymond is in Cambridge City, Middlesex County, Massachusettes and is a General \nSales Manager for a manufacturing company.&nbsp; Bessie&nbsp; and Helen (a \nlibrary stenographer) are renting a house in California St. still in San \nFrancisco.&nbsp; Bessie is now married to John Pigott, a lawyer, and they have 2 \ndaughters Elizabeth R and Virginia C (age 6 and 3) all living at 2175, 4th \nAvenue, Sacramento, California (rented).&nbsp; 1930 we find Elizabeth (Bessie) \nand Helen in Clay Street, San Francisco and Helen is a Secretary to the \nChristian Science Church.&nbsp; Raymond now an Executive with an Investment Co. \nis now married to Ann.&nbsp; There is a WW11 Draft Reg. Card for Raymond dated \n1942 naming Ann as his wife and living at 1121 Greenwich St. and he is employed \nby Western Life Ins. Co.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Raymond died February 1972.&nbsp; \nBessie and John Pigott (now an Attorney in Gen. Practice) are now living and \nowning their own home at 3343 Presidio rd. San Francisco and are there with \nElizabeth, Virginia and also son John aged 10.&nbsp; It is possible that \nElizabeth R Pigott married a Yost.&nbsp; This information mainly obtained from \nthe California Vital Records Index and census records.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Catherine <\/strong>(b.1816 Manchester &#8211; d.?) married \n(by her father) Robert George Milne (Independent Minister) 26th February 1845. Robert was brother to William \nCharles Milne, missionary to China and their father was William Milne also \nmissionary to China and colleague of Dr Morrison.&nbsp; Catherine died sometime after 1857 leaving 6 \ndaughters, Helen Rachel (b. 1846 &#8211; d.1909 m. widower Edward Johnson Rimmer in \n1875 who already had 5 children. They had 3 further children, Marjory, Edward, \nLois (connections with the Boothroyd family here as 2 family members married 2 \nBoothroyds), Eliza Reed (b.1848), \nCatherine Jemima (b. 1852), Mary Amelia (b. 1854), Annie (b. 1856) and Amy (b. \n1857). Robert was for many years the minister at Tintwistle Chapel, Cheshire. In \n1861 Eliza Bradley (Helen`s cousin Samuel`s daughter) is staying with Robert at \nTintwistle and helping out with the girls.&nbsp; In \nthe 1871 census he has moved to Portland St. North Meols, Southport with 3 of \nhis daughters, and Eliza is a governess with the Elworthy family in Wellington, \nSomerset and Amy age 14 is at school in Selby.&nbsp; In 1881 Robert is still in \nPortland Street with his 4 daughters Eliza, Catherine, Mary (all school \nmistresses) and Amy (Daily Governess). Don`t know what`s happened to Annie.&nbsp; \nIn 1891, after the death of their father Robert, Eliza, Mary and Amy are living \nat 14 Linaker Street, Southport with same occupations.&nbsp; Catherine Jemima \nhad married Cephas Bartle in 1887 in Ormskirk and in the following year Kathleen \nMilne Bartle was born. Cephas is an accountant\/bookkeeper.&nbsp; It appears they \nthen moved to California in the United States where Catherine produced twin sons \nJames Bennett and Richard Milne Bartle, as shown by the 1910 US census. In 1920 \nKathleen is a lodger in the San Mateo district of California and is a librarian, \nand Cephas and Catherine are in Monterey.&nbsp; Twins Richard and James are \nliving together in Fourth St. Santa Clara and James is a mechanic.&nbsp; Can`t \nmake out what Richard did.&nbsp; By 1930 Richard has married Nellie George and \nthey have 2 children, Richard Milne (1925) and Ruth Georgene (1929).&nbsp; \nRichard snr. died 22 February 1941 in Santa Clara age 49.&nbsp; Kathleen has now \nmoved back with her parents in San Mateo and remains a librarian at the public \nlibrary.&nbsp; James died in 1960 in Santa Clara. There are copy WW1 \nregistration cards for both Richard and James.&nbsp; Back in 1901 the \nCatherine`s&nbsp; three have sisters have all moved around the UK &#8211; Eliza now aged 53 is a servant\/companion to M C Clark in Exeter, Mary \nage 49 is a visitor with Hannah (?) in St Anne`s-on-Sea and Amy age 42 is living \nas a boarder on own means in Blackpool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Jemima <\/strong>(b.1818 Birmingham- d. 1849 in Glasgow \nScotland) married (by her father Samuel) John Latham at the Independent Chapel, \nSouthport on the 21st October 1845. Jemima was his second wife. John was a \nManchester Agent. There was a son Arthur Sidney Latham b. 1846 in Stretford, \nManchester. Jemima, John and Arthur moved to Scotland sometime between 1845 and \n1849 when their second son Ronald James Bradley Latham was born on 12th \nSeptember (Jemima dying a few days later).&nbsp; In 1851 John (now a Railway \nManager) and his four children (2 from previous marriage) are living at 12 \nWindsor Terrace, Glasgow. In 1861 Arthur and Ronald are at school in Helensburgh, \nDumbartonshire.&nbsp; In 1871 and now young men aged 24 and 21 they are lodgers \nand back in England in Chorlton Upon Medlock &#8211; Arthur a Muslin Manufacturer`s \nclerk and Ronald a Calico Printer`s clerk.&nbsp; In 1881 Arthur is in the \nSalisbury Hotel London and is a Cotton Manufacturer and Ronald is still in \nChorlton Upon Medlock at Holms Common.&nbsp; In 1891 Arthur is now a Cotton \nManufacturer and Merchant and married to Edith Milnes Edmunds and living at \nAshlea, Cheadle with their 2 children Alice and Henry (age 6 and 4 and both born \nin Cheadle). Ronald is in a hotel in London.&nbsp; In 1901 Arthur and wife Edith \nand 2 children Edith and Ronald (age 13 and 2 and again both born in Cheadle). \nArthur had obviously become quite successful as the household also consists of \nhalf a dozen live-in servants. Their son Henry is now at school in Sedbergh, \nCumbria and Ronald will follow in his brother`s footsteps. Information from the \nschool tells us that Henry was a keen and successful sportsman (football and \nrugby) as well as being Head of School.&nbsp; He left in 1917 and went to \nTrinity Coll. Oxford (BA 1908) where he played rugby and played for Lancashire \nCounty 1905-12.&nbsp; Henry became a solicitor and married in 1914 and lived in \nWilmslow, Cheshire.&nbsp; Ronald left Sedbergh in 1917. He served in the Great \nWar &#8211; Lieut. Loyal North Lancs. Reg. France 1918.&nbsp; He was an Accountant`s \nclerk and married Doris Greenhalgh in 1917 and lived in Bramhall, Cheshire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It would appear that after the marriage of Helen \nand George in Manchester in 1840 and their subsequent move to America, the rest of the family moved to Southport where Catherine and Jemima \nwere living at the time of their marriages&nbsp; There is of course the possibility that \nSamuel&nbsp; visited America either to see family or to preach &#8211; hence the prayer \nbook turning up there. The Rev`d Samuel`s wife was Helen Bellhouse (a prominent \nfamily in Manchester at that time). Helen died 15th November 1850 in North Meols, \nSouthport aged 63. Informant at her death was Catherine Milne of Tintwistle. The Rev`d Samuel died in 1860 \nat 169 Radnor Street, Hulme, Manchester, age 83. Informant at his death was J A \nAttenbury, also of 169 Radnor Street, Hulme.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Rev`d Samuel Bradley<\/strong> \ndoes appear to have been quite a prominent figure in Manchester religious life \nin the early 1800s, and up until the mid 1860s the Bradleys have featured in \nManchester life around the areas of Chorlton-on-Medlock, Rusholme and Longsight.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My 3xgt.grandfather Benjamin`s brother, the Rev`d Samuel Bradley has been easier to investigate.
