Joseph Broady family

(Last updated 16 Aug 2020)

Father

Joseph Broady was born at least before 1765.

Joseph's first wife is believed to have been Jane Dent.  They would have married in Virginia.

Joseph's second wife appears to have been Mary "Polly" McFadden who he married on 26 Feb 1808 in Knox County, Tennessee which borders Grainger county.

Joseph Broady may have died about 1835 possibly in Scott County, Indiana.  The source for this information is unknown.

There is very little information about this family and the children are assumed not proven. There may have been more children by Jane and Mary.
