Arizona Republican-November 11 ,1901
Harry Bradshaw died about 11 o'clock yesterday forenoon at 
his home on the Black Canyon Road.  He was a native of 
England and was born in Birmingham the same day that Queen 
Victoria was born, eighty three years ago, an event he often 
referred to and an incident he esteemed quite an honor.  But 
Harry was a thorough American and came to this country a 
great many years ago.  He was a soldier in the Union Army 
during the Civil War and was later stationed at Fort 
McDowell with the regular troops.

"Uncle Harry" as he was familiarly called by those who knew 
him, has been a resident of Maricopa for thirty years so he 
is entitled to the appellation of "old timer".  He was a 
little odd in his ways, owing, no doubt to the fact that he 
has no living relatives, so far as known and that he lived 
alone in his little ranch house.  Though eccentric he has 
ever been a good citizen and one who bore the respect of 
his neighbors.  His end came very suddenly though he has 
been ailing for two or three weeks. Yesterday morning he 
was able to be up and around the house, but before noon 
the messenger of death had summoned him to the final roll call.

The funeral will be announced later and interment will be 
made in the G.A.R. cemetery.
