Papers, 1836-1986 (bulk, 1836-1873, 1928-1933).

Collection consists primarily of correspondence, edited abstracts of Dr. Bradley's journal, and biographical sketches. The majority of the correspondence was written either by Rev. George Whipple (General Secretary of the American Missionary Association) to Dr. Bradley and the Siam Mission, or from Dr. Bradley to his relatives. One of the biographical sketches contains numerous family photographs. The collection also includes several mission newsletters as well as the record book of the Siam Mission Church, which Dr. Bradley and other fellow missionaries founded in 1852. Series 2 contains letters written about Dr. Bradley or to or from other Bradley family members. It also includes the transcribed diary and an image of Emelie Royce Bradley as well as two booklets describing Cornelius Bradley's experiences in Siam.
