In Claire's words...This is the iron grave marker of John S. Bradbury, son of Andrew Bradbury, proprietor of the Guilford Iron Works of Guilford NY. John S. Bradbury was killed on April 11th, 1854 in the explosion of the steamboat Jenny Lind, on the San Francisco Bay. John was originally buried in Yerba Buena Cemetery in San Francisco. Fourteen years later when the burials there were being relocated, his remains and this marker were brought back to his hometown and reinterred in Sunset Hill Cemetery. |
