Hello Jane

SFHS Suffolk 1851 Census Index. Vol.16 East Suffolk Plomesgate District
HO107/1802
Fol.049 Earl Soham
Harriet Bradley age 22 born Brandeston
i.e. born 1828/9, the one you have found presumably, maybe in service.

Perhaps this is the clue you need.
Fols. 076 to 094 are for Brandeston, which parish is a neighbour to Earl
Soham
Fol.076
Thomas Bradley age 74 - note the spelling
John Bradlaugh age 54
Eliza Bradlaugh age 48
William 14
James age 12
Thomas age 9
George age 6

Fol.077
John Bradlaugh age25
Anna Bradlaugh age 28

Fol. 086
John Bradlaugh age 34
Eliza age 28 born Ufford
Elizabeth age 8
Maria age 5
Anna age 9months

everyone except Eliza age 28 were born in Brandeston

So perhaps the spelling of the name changed, when spoken they must have
sounded much the same.

Hope this all helps.
