Biography
Born in Plainfield, Connecticut, Bradford graduated from Yale University (1833) and Harvard Law School (1837) before establishing a law practice in New Orleans, Louisiana.[1]
In 1852, Bradford was nominated by President Millard Fillmore to replace the recently deceased Justice John McKinley. The Senate declined to act on the nomination before the session ended and Bradford was not re-nominated.[2]
Bradford became ill with an unspecified disease in 1869 and left his law practice to seek treatment in Europe. After stays in England, Germany and France he died in Paris on November 22, 1872.[1] He was buried at Plainfield Cemetery in Plainfield.[3]
