Thomas Bradley (records suggest that he was born around 1766) married Sarah Garton (bap. 18 Feb 1770 n Woodford, Essex), daughter of John Garton and Elizabeth Shirley, on 6 Jan 1789 in Woodford, presumably at the ancient parish church of St Mary's, Woodford (since rebuilt).  

Thomas and Sarah had at least these eight children:
  1. Henry Bradley bap. 1 Nov 1789 in Woodford
  2. Sarah Bradley bap. 22 Apr 1792 at St Mary, Chigwell
  3. Elizabeth Bradley bap. 19 Oct 1794 in Chigwell (Presume died.)
  4. Catherine Bradley bap. 31 Jul 1796 in Chigwell
  5. Elizabeth Bradley bap. 8 Mar 1799 in Chigwell
  6. UNNAMED Bradley bap. 27 Jun 1802 in Chigwell
  7. Mary Bradley bap. 5 Feb 1804 in Chigwell
  8. John Bradley b. 15 May 1809, bap. 30 Jul 1809 in Chigwell
The first Elizabeth, b. 1794, presumably died, hence naming another child Elizabeth in 1799. The 1802 child, I assume was baptised posthumously.

Thomas Bradley died, aged 48, and was buried on 20 Feb 1814 in Chigwell.

Sarah Bradley died, age estimated as ~79/80 (in 1846 D Quarter in EPPING UNION Vol 12 Page 82), and was buried in Chigwell on 15 Nov 1846.
