Step into Bradford, Vermont as it was made: from the first clearing in 1765 to a community tested, rebuilt, and recorded through 1874. Names, dates, lives, and legacies. In these pages, a Vermont town history speaks with the calm authority of local witness, turning civic record into a vivid sense of place. It is history at street level, assembled before memory faded. Silas McKeen's A History of Bradford, Vermont is a complete local history that follows Bradford Vermont settlement, principal improvements, and town events 1765-1874 across one hundred and nine years. It is also a historical genealogy compilation, bringing together Vermont family registers, genealogical records, and biographical sketches of residents, some deceased and others still living in the author's day. Readers drawn to colonial era Vermont and 19th century Vermont will value its texture; those pursuing Vermont ancestry research will value its accuracy. McKeen writes with respect for evidence, and his pages keep small stories anchored to the public record. Dip in for a single surname, or read straight through for the town's long arc. As a dependable genealogy reference book within the tradition of New England town histories, it remains a practical tool for librarians, local historians, and careful family researchers. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today -- a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike. More than a handy reference, it is a shelf-worthy window onto Vermont's enduring past.
