I'm researching the four branches of my family. Each one, of course, comes with its own set of problems. My BRADDOCK line begins with Carl Braddock (1889-1963), son of Joseph Daniel Braddock (1874-1940),son of William Braddock (1827-1906), son of John Braddock, Sr. (1799-1850), son of Ralph (Raff)Braddock (1764). All lived in and around Chesterfield County, South Carolina. Piece of cake, right? Then I get to Ralph's father, Edward, born about 1738. Can't find out a thing about him because I'm inundated by information on Major General Edward Braddock and his son, General Edward Braddock. Sincerely doubt they are one in the same.
