Someone
sent me your site - It's wonderful. I too was born and grew up
in Bradford.
Now I'm in Florida
- trying to do a book of the history of old Lincoln
School.
Do you by chance have a photo of it for my book cover? Would love to see
anything Lincoln
related. I grew up in the 50's and 60's. What a wonderful time!!!!

History
helps us understand where we have come from so we can better chart
where we need to
go in the future. ::::This is a wonderful new resource for Bradfordians
and all regional historians
and a great new regional contribution to local history. We love it.

My
parents grew up in Bradford,
and one grandfather, Albert Eisenman owned
a meat market
there until the mid-1940s, when he died. I sure had fun looking
at your site and
remembering my dad's stories. Thanks for a job well done.

I too, grew up in Bradford and attended the Lincoln School.
Really enjoyed all of the stuff about Bradford. My father also
worked at Lincoln School as many of you probably remember
him.(Ralph Holzwarth) I now live in Farmers Valley.

What a phenomenal undertaking
with a great result.
You brought back many memories of having grown up in
Bradford.
It’s amazing that “how much
it’s changed, how much it’s remained the same.”

What a wonderful site! Thank you, thank you. I
was born in Bradford in 1956.
Lived there until 1965 and moved to Calif. with my parents and sister. I
now live
in San Jose,
Ca. My family history goes way back on both sides of my family. I
am interested in genealogy and have relatives that have
worked on our family tree
on my mom’s side of the family. I am trying to work on
my dad’s side.
It is so interesting to see these old photos and try to
think what it was like for my
ancestors. I may have something to contribute.
Will have to check and see.

I love this site, the pictures, and the
history. I have never been to Bradford
but my roots go back to the 1800s in
Bradford. My father and his family
moved here, "Tulsa" in 1921,
he was only 8 and always had wonderful memories
of Bradford. They left family behind,
Quinn, Atkins, Lynett, Mcdermott and more,
but lost contact over the years. I
remember he spoke of High St, Forman St,
St. Bernard, and Tidewater Oil where
his father worked.
Thank you so much for this wonderful
visit. Sincerely, John A. Quinn

What a great site! I was born and raised in Bradford, as was my Dad.
The photos brought back
lots of memories, and also gave me a look at
what Bradford was like when my Dad was young.
Every hometown should
have a site like this!

sharing this priceless history.

A truly fabulous site...quite a walk down
memory lane. Some pix way before my time and a lot I remember vividly.
I will always remember Bradford as home of the "Zippo"
lighter and Kendall oil and of course Case knives. Someone
put an awful lot of work into this site. "THANK YOU" I'll be back, I only looked at a few.

I just wanted to extend my appreciation for this site. I
am currently working on putting together an extended family genogram
and this website has offered me more information
and enjoyment than I could have ever imagined.
My entire family, and I
mean ENTIRE family, is from Bradford, PA.
I just wanted to say
what a great website and collection of unique photographs and memories
you have offered me!

Wonderful site.
Seeing the schools where I attended kindergarten through high school brought back a flood of memories.
