The following is a roll of miners who were living in the Bradford area. Their names were obtained from the census, which was taken on the night of the 6/7 June 1841. The list does not purport to be complete as there would be miners living outside the village and not everyone would have made a census return. The adjacent village of Beswick was searched but no miners were found living there. It is understood that Bradford village supplied most of the colliery's manpower until about 1870.
