Bradford was settled on the Tunungwant Creek in 1823 in the region known as the Tuna Valley but wasn't charted as a city until 1879. In 1871 oil was discovered and the price of land soared from 6.25 cents to $1,000 an acre. In less than 25 years the city boomed; residents sank wells everywhere. As the oil industry expanded in the area, the town became the world's first billion-dollar oil field. Bradford also has become a leader in manufacturing: Timber products, wooden toys, electronic parts, case knives and Zippo lighters are produced. Learn More...
