Michael Broadley, the eldest son of William Bradley/Broadley, was baptized at Halifax as son of William Brodley of Hipperholme 21 aug 1586. There are no more children for William of Hipperholme. The next child is Daniel baptized at Bingley 6 jan 1588/9. Perhaps William's wife Agnes was from the Bradford area and that is why he moved there.

I have a copy of the will of William Broadley of the new close in the parish of Bradford 22 dec 1598 and can send a transcription if needed. No Samuel or Thomas appear in this will. The children listed are Michael, the eldest son, Daniel the second son and Matthew the third son, also daughter Sara. These are left to 4 different tutors who might carry clues to the origins of William Broadley if researched.
