Weather & Bradley Legacy

"Hi, Linda! Cold here in NE Kansas and supposed to get more-so! Last weekend we had 6+" of snow and it mostly just lay where it fell - Hooray! For next weekend the WX-man is calling for it to not get above mid-teens on Saturday and Sunday week.

I am sending an attachment for you to post if you so choose. This man, Andrew Jackson Bradley, is my great-grandfather. He was a Civil War Veteran and member of the Grand Army of the Republic or GAR. He was a member of the Missouri State Militia, sort of like today's National Guard. As you can see, he was wounded and that wound plagued him the rest of his life. We Bradleys are cousins of the famous General Omar N. Bradley. He and us have a common ancestor - seven generations back for me and four for Omar." -- James Bradley
