Bradford Cemetery is located in Pulaski County, MO., on Fort Leonard Wood, Missouri. According to Tombstone Inscriptions of Pulaski County, both the road into the cemetery, and the cemetery itself is in very bad condition. It is believed that the earliest stone dates to 1879, belonging to Rhoda Duncan. Coincidentally, there are no recorded graves for any Bradford family members. It is an educated guess that this cemetery was also known as James Bradford Cemetery in the late 1800's and early 1900's. This belief is based off notations of J.J. Watts and the obituary/death certificate of Minnie (Jones) Jackson. The Bradford Cemetery on H Highway was called William Bradford Cemetery.
