Note

William Bridges died in 31 December 1743 in Westmoreland County, Virginia. He had married El izabeth Medcalf. It is my firm suspicion that this William Bridges is the same person as th e William Bridger who had married Elizabeth Godwin. My reason for this is because the birth y ear for this William Bridges is 1700, when his father would have been 4 years old! Perhaps th ey changed the family name because of the age difference, or because they didn't want to be a ssociated with the Bridger who fought against independence in the Revolutionary War, or becau se of a misspelling in a census, we will never know for sure why the family name was changed.
