Bradley Keane

Bradley Keane is a lifelong Valentine resident and owner of Keane's Saloon & Hotel.

Childhood
Bradley Keane was born circa June 1884 to Martha and Mark Keane, at their modest hotel in Valentine, New Hanover. The Keane family has lived a life of humble prosperity for over two hundred years in the Valentine area and hopes to continue that through Bradley. At the age of 16, Martha and Mark were murdered at The Keane Saloon as they were suspected to be part of an illusive moonshine smuggling group. Although no information ever came up, it is something suspected of the Keane family for over fifty years. Following his parents passing, Bradley took on the family business with what little he had and has kept their family dream alive.

Early Adult Life
In the early 1900s, Bradley knew his businesses were at risk during the opening of Smithfields - a new saloon down the street which was attracting all walks of life. Old patrons of Keane's were beginning to skip Church and head over to Smithfield's which ate away at the profits and eventual money that Bradley had to work with. With his saloon entering a dilapidated state, Bradley knew he needed to make agreements with others in Valentine - people his family has known for generations - to ensure the survival of Keane's Saloon & Hotel. Over the years, it seems the Saloon & Hotel have stood tall, but only time will tell.

Present Day
Throughout 1910 to 1911, Bradley began to make acquaintances with many new folks traveling from the East in search of the riches, lands and more in the West, but what he learned from them was quite the opposite. Many of them were filled with broken dreams and without a dollar to their name. Using his family's history of hospitality and service, Bradley realized his new opportunity awaits with the new citizens of Valentine and began working with them to establish their new life -- and allegiances -- with Keane.

Personality
An upbeat fellow, Bradley Keane focuses on investing his time into the people around him. While his goal of keeping his beloved Hotel and Saloon up and running is simple in nature, the way Bradley undertakes achieving that goal is complex and includes folks of many types. At the end of the day, Bradley is always willing to pour you another glass of Whiskey.
