William Hardwick Bradbury (1832–1892) was a printer and publisher and a partner in the firm Bradbury, Evans & Co..[1]
Early life
He was one of five children and the second son of Sarah née Price (c1803-1896) and William Bradbury, the co-founder of the printing and publishing firm of Bradbury and Evans. His older brother was the the writer Henry Riley Bradbury (1831-1860), who committed suicide by drinking acid, possibly on being refused in marriage by a daughter of Frederick Mullett Evans, his father’s partner, or perhaps as a result of being accused of plagiarism by Alois Auer.[2]
