Kentucky: A History of the State, 4th Edition (Battle, Perrin, & Kniffin, 1887), article
on Timoleon Bradshaw (of Russell Co.) & Tarleton T. Bradshaw (of Adair Co.)
{29434}
“TIMOLEON [#28584] and TARLETON T. BRADSHAW [#28583], the former a native of
Russell, the latter of Adair County, are the sons of SEATH [#2858] and SARAH G.
(WHITE) [#2858/1] BRADSHAW. SEATH BRADSHAW, born 23-Oct-1805, was a native
of Burke County NC. He was the eighth of ten children, and when only five years of age was
brought by his father to Russell County KY, and shortly afterward to Adair. He always
owned his own farm, and part of the time cultivated it with slave labor, being worth at one
time nearly $20,000. He departed this life 09-Mar-1873. He had married, in 1828, Miss
SARAH G. WHITE, daughter of THOMAS and NANCY (ABRELL) WHITE, natives of the
Old Dominion. The names of the children born to SEATH and SARAH BRADSHAW are
OCTAVIA [#28581] (wife of AARON McCLURE [#28581/1]), CASANDRA [#28582]
(wife of CHARLES F. JONES [#28582/1], TARLETON T.; TIMOLEON; ANN L. [#28585]
(wife of J.G. WHITE [#28585/1]), CHARLOTTA W. [#28586]; and MILLIE F. [#28587]
(wife of T.W. MONTGOMERY [#28587/1]), of whom all are living except CASANDRA.
Mrs. BRADSHAW died 11-Apr-1855 in the forty-eighth year of her age, and in life was a
consistent member of the Methodist Episcopal Church. SEATH BRADSHAW, Sr. [#285],
the grandfather of the gentlemen whose names head these lines, was a native of Virginia,
from where he emigrated to North Carolina, and finally to Kentucky. He was married to Miss
ANN LOWE [#285/1], a native of Virginia, and the names of their children were WILLIAM
[#2851], ISAAC [#2852], ISAIAH [#2853], ELIJAH [#2854], SEATH [#2858], MILLIE
(MILLER) [#2855], ANN (BRADSHAW) [#2856], MARY (WILSON) [#2857], and
CHARLOTTE (WHITE) [#2859]. Of his sons, ISAAC and ISAIAH served in the war of
1812, and he himself was a Revolutionary veteran. Mrs. BRADSHAW, his wife, was killed
at the age of ninty-seven, being thrown from a horse. The BRADSHAW family are of Irish
origin, and sprang from one of two brothers who came from Ireland to America. WILLIAM
BRADSHAW, the son of SEATH BRADSHAW, Sr., was a man of some celebrity in the his-
tory of the politics of this section, having served in the Senate of Kentucky. TARLETON T.
BRADSHAW, born 02-Apr-1832, was the third of SEATH BRADSHAW's children. He be-
gan life by farming with his father, and this has since been his vocation. He had no inher-
itance. but at present owns about 400 acres on the line of Russell and Adair Counties, of
which 75 acres are in cultivation. He has never been married, but has kept house with his sis-
ter, CHARLOTTA W. BRADSHAW, a number of years. Mr. BRADSHAW enlisted, 04-
Oct-1861, in Company D, Fifth Kentucky Volunteer Cavalry, Federal service. He partici-
pated in many of the prominent battles without a wound or being taken prisoner. He was the
first sergeant of the company, and was mustered out of the service and received an honorable
discharge at Louisville, 17-May-1865. Mr. BRADSHAW has a fair library and is a great
reader. He is a member of the Masonic order, and has been a life-long Democrat.
TIMOLEON BRADSHAW in youth received a good business education in the common
schools of Adair County, and his occupation in life has been mostly in the line of merchan-
dise. He was married to Miss SALLY WILSON, a daughter of H.W. and AGNES A.
(JOHNSTON) WILSON, natives of Taylor County,and this marriage was blessed by the ad-
dition of four children: BETTY C., MARY G., EFFIE T. and WILLIAM E. He first sold
goods at Russell Spring, but afterward and most of his life in Columbia, and does a flourish-
ing trade in general merchandise. In connection with Mr. BRADSHAW's business, Mrs.
BRADSHAW handles a finely selected stock of millinery, in which she does a thriving busi-
ness. The stock is worth at least $6,000, including general merchandise and millinery. Mr.
and Mrs. BRADSHAW are both members of the Christian Church, and Mr. BRADSHAW is
one of the trustees of the Columbia Christian College. All of the children of Mr. and Mrs.
BRADSHAW are living except their eldest, BETTIE C., who died 25-July-1883. She was
born 04-Mar-1863. She was a bright, intelligent girl in her youth, and at the age of thirteen
became a member of the Christian Church. Her education was very thorough, and was com-
pleted at Columbia Christian College, where she graduated in June 1881, and after gradua-
tion was connected with it as teacher of painting in the Art Department, which position she
held until her death. She left a large number of friends who mourned her demise, among
whom was Miss DELRAY TAYLOR, an associate teacher in the same institution, who fol-
lowed in a few brief months.”
