The Old Colony Memorial.

PLYMOUTH:

THURSDAY, JAN. 11, 1877.

A Nonogenarian

Miss Sarah Bradford attained her ninety-fourth birthday last Monday, and at her age is a remarkably well preserved old lady, being in posession of all her faculties, able to sew and read without glasses, and go about as she pleases out of doors, in spite of ice and snow. She is a direct descendant of Gov. Bradford, the old Pilgrim ruler, in the seventh generation, and is the last survivor of a large family, of which the late Mr. John Bradford, for so many years the keeper of the old Bradford Tavern in this town, was a member. Miss Bradford has her home with her neice, Mrs. S. M. Burbank, Jr., on South Green street, and on Monday received calls from several of our first families as well as from immediate relatives. The Bradfords of New York city, also kindly remembered her with substantial tokens of regard.
