Lydia Moss Bradley (July 31, 1816 January 16, 1908) was a wealthy philanthropist notable for her philanthropic works in Illinois and the independent management of her wealth. Was born and raised in Vevay, Indiana alongside the Ohio River and lived there with her family and husband until the age of 31 when she and her husband Tobias Bradley moved to Peoria, Illinois. Was an American philanthropist most noted for founding and endowing the Bradley Polytechnic Institute, now called Bradley University, in Peoria, Illinois. She was a pioneer of her day in many fields. Early in life she demonstrated qualities of determination and ability. In May 1837 she married Tobias S. Bradley and moved to Peoria, where over the next three decades they prospered in real estate and banking. Despite his death in 1867 and the subsequent deaths of all their children, Bradley continued to work in business and pursued philanthropic interests, particularly in the areas of healthcare and education.
