Purdy, born 1851 in Dearborn, Michigan, is living with his borther Judson Purdy and family in the same Mendon area working in a sawmill. They meet and marry in 1881 and move into the state of Minnesota. This is where the Purdy name comes into the Smith family. Bradley H. Purdy was an uncle to Harold Purdy Smith. Frances and Bradley ended up in St. Paul he worked for the railroad. In 1900 they were living in Minneapolis, 1901 found them in Winthrope, Sibley Co. 1910 had them living with Amanda and Milton Taylor in St. Paul. By 1920 Bradley was a widower living at #775 St. Peter St. Lorraine Ciernia remembers Uncle Purdy as "a nice man who visited Grandpa and Grandma Smith at their house". This must have been Bradley J. Purdy, the son of Bradley H. and his first wife, because Uncle Bradley H. Purdy died 19 August 1920 and Lorraine would have been to young to remember him.
