William was the second governor of Plymouth Colony.

“After his father’s death [William] lived at first with his grandfather, but on his death in 1596 he went to live with his uncle, Robert Bradford, who lived in Scrooby, five miles from Osterfeldt [Austerfield], near the estate of the Brewsters in county Nottingham. He joined the church where Rev. Richard Clifton and Rev. John Robinson preached, and soon became one of the leading ‘separatists.’ His early educational advantages were limited, but by diligent study he became very proficient in Dutch, Latin, French and Greek, and also devoted himself to the study of Hebrew that he might read the Bible in its original form. He went with the company which migrated to Holland, and was a most influential power among them. On his coming of age he received considerable property from his father’s estate, but did not succeed him in his commercial undertakings. He learned the art of ‘fustian or frieze weaving.’ On November 15 1613, he was affianced to Dorothea May, from Wisbeach, Cambridge, England. The banns were published in Leyden, and they were married in Amsterdam, Holland, December 9, 1613. His age is given as twenty-three, hers as sixteen. They embarked for England, July 22, 1620, and after many trials sailed from Plymouth, England, September 6, 1620, on the ship Mayflower, reaching Cape Cod harbor the November following. While they were at anchor, and he was absent from the vessel, Dorothea fell overboard and was drowned, December 9, 1620. Soo after the death of Governor Carver, William Bradford was elected governor of the colony, which he held by annual election until his death, May 9, 1657, with the exception of the years 1633-34-36-38-44. He took a prominent part in all the councils, which were held at his house, and in all civic, political and military affairs. From his house at the foot of Burial Hill each Sunday morning the company of people who assembled there marched up to the fort at its top, where religious services were held. The history of the times which he left gives a correct and valuable picture of the events of that time.”25

804 ii. Mercy Bradford (bef May 1627-)

“John Cooper was in Scituate 1634. In 1638, ‘tongue island,’ so called, was granted to him by the committee for laying out lands. This is one of the marsh Islands near Little’s bridge, and has been known by the name of Cooper’s Island. In 1639, he sold the island to William Wills, and the island bears the name of Wills’s island to this [1831] day. ... He removed to Barnstable, 1639. We believe he left no children.”6 His will was made 1676.
