Transcribed by Sarah Hawkins )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Buying and Selling land )〕 until her death in 1819. In 1853 the Great Western Railway line was opened from Taunton to Yeovil, and Jabez Bradford started the Yeovil branch of the business. GWR came to an agreement with the Bradford family for sidings to be built near Yeovil Station;〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=Nick Gould Family History )〕 Jabez would be mayor of Yeovil from 1880-1882.
