john and bradley hanlon
i met the hanlon brothers when they were very young. they lived with their mother and two sisters downstairs from me at the coronado apartments at seventh and summit in fort worth, texas. the apartments were managed by the salvation army. they were very seedy, but also fairly cheap. the hanlon brothers were very young. john was ten and bradley was eight, i think. we became good friends and stayed so for years, through various moves. john would even call on my father downtown sometimes. finally we lost touch. they had ended up in a group home or ranch somewhere. bradley was eventually adopted by someone in west texas and may have eventually changed his name. john became involved with a fundamentalist christian group and last contacted me about 1990 when i was living at hunter plaza in downtown fort worth. we had a good visit, but he never came back and that was it. i think about them, their mother and their sisters from time to time. would like toknow where they are. seems like their mother was living off of seminary drive at one time. their younger sister worked in a restaurant on or just off bluebonnet circle. bradley was brilliant, but john was good too.
