[ from a Word file ]
William Bradford pp 3031 Cyclopedia of American L

William Bradford was born at Ansterfield (sic), in the north of England, in 1588. He was educated as a farmer, and inherited a large patrimony

Embracing at an early age the tenets of the Puritans, he connected himself with the congregation of the celebrated John Robinson, and at the age of nineteen, after two unsuccessful attempts, joined his associates at Amsterdam. He remained in Holland until 1620, when he formed one of the ship’s company of the Mayflower. While exploring the bay in a small boat, for the purpose of selecting a place for settlement, his wife was drowned. After the death of Governor Carver, April 5, 1621, he was chosen his successor. He established by gentleness and firmness a good understanding with the Indians, and conducted the internal affairs of the colony with equal sagacity. He was annually re-elected for twelve years, and then, in the words of Governor Winthrop, “by importunity, got off” from the cares of office for two years, when he was re-elected, and continued in power, with the exceptions of the years 1636, ’38, and ’44, until his death May 9, 1657. He was twice married, and left two sons by his second wife, Alice Southworth. The eldest, William, was deputy governor of the colony, and had nine sons and three daughters

Numerous anecdotes are related of Governor Bradford, indicative of ready wit and good common sense. When in 1622, during a period of great scarcity in the colony, Canonicus, Sachem of Narragansett, sent him a bundle of arrows tied with the skin of a serpent, the messenger was immediately sent back with the skin stuffed with powder and ball, which caused a speedy and satisfactory termination to the correspondence. Suspecting one Lyford of plotting against the ecclesiastical arrangements of the colony, he boarded a ship, which was known to have carried out a large number of letters written by him, after she left port, examined them, and thus obtained evidence by which Lyford was tried and banished

Governor Bradford’s reputation as an author is decidedly of a posthumous character. He left a MS. History, in a folio volume of 270 pages, of the Plymouth colony, from the formation of their church in 1602 to 1747. It furnished the material for Morton’s Memorial, was used by Prince and Governor Hutchinson in the preparation of their histories, and deposited, with the papers of the former, in the library of the Old South Church, in Boston. During the desecration of this edifice as a riding school by the British in the Revolutionary War, the MS. Disappeared. (It was given up for lost till 1655, when it was found complete in the Fulham Library, England.) A copy of a portion closing with the year 1620, in the handwriting of Nathaniel Morton, was discovered by the Rev. Alexander Young in the library of the First Church, at Plymouth, and printed in his Chronicles of the Pilgrim Fathers of the Colony of Plymouth, in 1841. A “letter-book”, in which Bradford preserved copies of his correspondence, met with a similar fate, a portion only having been rescued from a grocer’s shop in Halifax, and published in the Collections of the Massachusetts Historical Society, in 1794, vol. iii. of the first series of Collections with a fragment of a poem on New England. These, with two other specimens of a few lines each, first published by the same society in 1838, (third series, vii.) with the exception of some slight controversial pieces, the whole of his literary productions

“I commend unto your wisdom and discretion,” he says in his will, “some small bookes written by my own hand, to be improved as you shall see meet. In special, I commend you to a little booke with a black cover, wherein there is a word to Plymouth, a word to Boston, and a word to New England, with sundry useful verses”

OF BOSTON IN NEW ENGLAND

O Boston, though thou now art grown
To be a great and wealthy town,
Yet I have seen thee a void place,
Shrubs and bushes covering thy face;
And house then in thee none were there,
Nor such as gold and silk did weare;
No drunkenness were then in thee,
Nor such excess as now we see

We then drunk freely of thy spring,
Without paying of anything;
We lodged freely where we would,
All things were free and nothing sold

And they that did thee first begin,
Had hearts as free and as willing
Their poor friends for to entertain,
And never looked at sordid gain

Some thou hast had whome I did know,
That spent theirselves to make thee grow,
And thy foundations they did lay,
Which do remain unto this day

When thou wast weak they did thee nurse,
Or else with thee it had been worse;
They left thee not, but did defend
And succor thee unto their end

Thou now hast grown in wealth and store,
Do not forget that thou wast poor,
And lift not up thyself in pride,
From truth and justice turn not aside

Remember thou a Cotton had,
Which made the hearts of many glad;
What he thee taught bear thou in mind,
It’s hard another such to find

A Winthrop once in thee was known,
Who unto thee was as a crown

Such ornaments are very rare,
Yet thou enjoyed this blessed pair

But these are gone, their work is done,
Their day is past, set is their sun:
Yet faithful Wilson still remains,
And learned Norton doth take pains

Live ye in peace. I could say more

Oppress ye not the weak and poor

The trade is all in your own hand,
Take heed ye do not wrong the land,
Lest he that hath lift you on high,
When, as the poor to him do cry,
Do throw you down from your high state,
And make you low and desolate

FRAGMENTARY POEM ON NEW ENGLAND

[...]Famine once we had,
But other things God gave us in full store,
As fish and ground-nuts, to supply our strait,
That we might learn on Providence to wait;
And know, by bread man lives not in his need

But by each word that doth from God proceed.
But a while after plenty did come in,
From his hand only who doth pardon sin.
And all did flourish like the pleasant green,
Which in the joyful spring is to be seen

Almost ten years we lived here alone,
In other places there were few or none;
For Salem was the next of any fame,
That began to augment New England’s name;
But after multitudes began to flow,
More than well knew themselves where to bestow;
Boston then began her roots to spread,
And quickly soon she grew to be the head,
Not only of the Massachusetts Bay,
But all trade and commerce fell in her way

And truly it was admirable to know,
How greatly all things here began to grow

New plantations were in each place begun,
And with inhabitants were filled soon

All sorts of grain which our own land doth yield,
Was hither brought, and sown in every field:
As wheat and rye, barley, oats, beans and pease,
Here all thrive, and they profit from them raise

All sorts of roots and herbs in gardens grow,
Parsnips, carrots, turnips, or what you’ll sow.
Onions, melons, cucumbers, radishes,
Skirets, beets, coleworts and fair cabbages

Here grow fine flowers many, and ‘mongst those,
The fair white lily and sweet fragrant rose

Many good wholesome berries here you’ll find,
Fit for man’s use, almost of every kind,
Pears, apples, cherries, plumbs, quinces and peach,
Are now no dainties; you may have of each

Nuts and grapes of several sorts are here,
If you will take the pains them to seek for

* * * * * * * * * * * * * *

But that which did ‘bove all the rest excel,
God in his word, with us he here did dwell;
Well ordered churches, in each place there were,
And a learn’d ministry was planted here

All marvell’d and said: “Lord, this work is thine,
In the wilderness to make such lights to shine”

And truly it was a glorious thing,
Thus to hear men pray, and God’s praises sing

Where these natives were wont to cry and yell
To Satan, who ‘mongst them doth rule and dwell

Oh, how great comfort it was now to see
The churches to enjoy free liberty!

And to have the Gospel preach’d here with power,
And such wolves repell’d as would else devour;
And now with plenty their poor soul were fed,
With better food than wheat, or angel’s bread,
In green pastures, they may themselves solace,
And drink freely of the sweet springs of grace;
A pleasant banquet is prepar’d for these,
Of fat things, and rich wine upon the lees;
“Eat, O my friends (saith Christ), and drink freely,
Here’s wine and milk, and all sweet spicery;
The honey and its comb is here to be had;
I myself for you have this banquet made:
Be not dismayed, but let your heart rejoice
In this wilderness, O let me hear your voice;
My friends you are, whilst you my ways do keep,
Your sins I’ll pardon and your good I’ll seek”

And they, poor souls, again to Christ do say:
“O Lord, thou art our hope, our strength and stay,
Who givest to us all these thy good things,
Us shelter still, in the shadow of thy wings:
So we shall sing, and laud thy name with praise,
“Tis thine own work to keep us in thy ways;
Uphold us still, O thou which art most high,
We then shall be kept, and thy name glorify,
Let us enjoy thyself, with these means of grace,
And in our hearts shine, with the light of thy face;
Take not away thy presence, nor thy word,
But, we humbly pray, us the same afford”

William Bradford IV

About William Bradford, IV

Major William Bradford was born on 17 June 1624 in Plymouth, Plymouth County, Massachusetts. He served the colony as a close assistant to the Governor. Altogether (according to his will) he had at least 15 children, and the Mayflower Descendant reports that Alice Richards bore him ten. His sons are listed as John, David, Ephraim, Hezekiah, William, Thomas, Samuel, Joseph and Israel. His daughters were Mercy (Steel), Hannah (Ripley), Melatia (Steel), Mary (Hunt), Alce (Fitch) and Sarah (Baker)

Often known as "Major William Bradford" because he commanded the Plymouth forces in the fight against the Narragansett in King Philip's war. He was wounded by a musket ball which he carried the rest of his life. He served as Deputy Governor of Plymouth in 1682-1686 and again in 1689-1692. During these terms from 1680 he also served as Treasurer. He was the Councillor of State to Governor Sir Edmund Andros during the interim, 1687-1689

He owned a large estate inherited from his father after 1657. William lived at the north side of the Jones River in the section known as Stony Brook in Kingston, Plymouth County, Massachusetts

William was elected as Deputy Governor from 1689 to 1691 in New Plymouth Colony. In 1691 he was a Member of the Council of Massachusetts. From 1692 to 1698 he was a Councillor of the Province of Massachusetts Bay

William died on 20 February 1703/4 in Plymouth, Plymouth County, Massachusetts. He was buried after 20 February 1703/4 in Burial Hill Cemetery, Plymouth, Plymouth County, Massachusetts. He is buried beside his father

He had his estate probated in Plymouth, Plymouth County, Massachusetts. His will mentions his wife, living children and grandson William. Parents: Governor William Bradford and Alice Carpenter

He married 3 times: first to Alice Richards (1627-1671), daughter of Thomas Richards and Welthian Loring of Weymouth and had 10 children. His second wife was Sarah (___?) Griswold, known as the Widow Wiswall, by a coincidence of similar names. Major William had one child by his second wife. He married his third wife, Mary Atwood Holmes (d. 1715), and had 4 children by her.
