| Brought to America by slave traders when he was an infant, James Bradley worked as a slave on an Arkansas plantation until he saved enough money to buy his freedom. Bradley crossed the Ohio River here in Covington, moving from slavery in the south to freedom in the north. He attended Lane Seminary in Cincinnati. |
