I found no Bradley Self with a wife Sara. Julia A. is this Bradley's
wife. The information you have might be incorrect. My family bible is
loaded with misinformation. Arlene Oh, Julia was born in Maryland not
Mo. Census can be hard to read.
That's a Mary I Self, b. DC, and it looks like they are living in
Washington DC as county is listed as Washington of Columbia. I think that
is District of Columbia. Also, Bradley was a blacksmith.
