Thomas Edward Bradley (1843–1927). The key point about Thomas Edward Bradley (the second) is that he married Rosetta Robinson (1842-1928), daughter of Harriett Wombwell and Charles John Robinson. He was thus both nephew and brother-in law of Henry Smale Bradley. And Hetty Jane Owen by extension had a ‘double cousinhood’ relationship with him.  Thomas and Rosetta had seven children. Their timeline is as follows:
1843: Thomas was born at 4 Hill Street, Bow.
1851: Thomas, aged eight was a boarder on the West Ham Lane, Church Street District at a Classical and Commercial Scholary.
1861: Thomas was back living with his family at 4 Richard Street, Bow.
1865: He married Rosetta at the Holy Trinity Church in Mile End Town. He was then working as a licensed victualler in Brook Green, Hammersmith.
1871: Now married to Rosetta, he was living at 12 Baggally Street in Mile End Old Town and was a clerk in the wool trade.
1881: They were living at 14 St. James Road, West Ham. Thomas was now working as a commercial clerk.
1901 and 1911: They were living at 99 Caistor Park Road, West Ham, with Thomas working as a ship’s clerk.
