In the Oxford Dictionary of Canadian Place Names, Alan Rayburn states that Bradford was named by Joel Fletcher Robinson in 1840, however, in his History of Simcoe County, Andrew F. Hunter claims that J. F. Robinson a merchant at Bond Head, established the Post Office at Bond Head in 1837. Hunter also claims that John Peacock, (the old soldier) became a merchant at Bradford. The Gazeteer And Directory of the County of Simcoe 1872-3, states that Bradford Post Office was established in 1835 with J. Peacock as first postmaster. The Gazeteer also mentions that Bond Head post offive was established in 1838, however, the postmaster is not mentioned. The 1948 reprint of Hunter's book and the 1985 (East Georgian Bay Historical Foundation) reprint of the Gazeteer are available in your Public Library, or perhaps not if you live in Bradford, I've been there.

Missing references and inappropriate content[edit]

This page is in serious need of citations. I removed some material about the Village Inn that is inappropriate for an encylopedia (and was clearly written by VI management). It seems like this page could be merged with the page for Bradford_West_Gwillimbury. 63x7r5 (talk) 23:10, 25 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
