Notes


Alden BRIDGHAM

Maine Families in 1790.


Sarah LANE

Maine Families in 1790


Hugh WALLACE

1910 Census: age 35, married 4 years, born NY, parents born Ireland (?), ran a horseshoe shop, lived at 104 Zabriskie St, Jersey City, Hudson, NJ with wife Emily, age 27, and three children, Helen (3), Robert(2) and Hugh (2).


1920 Census: Age 46, still running a horseshoe shop, lived 38 Bleeker St, Jersey City.  


Burial site: Flower Hill Cemetery, Union City, NJ


Emily REINHARDT

1910 Census: age 27, married 4 years, born NY, father born Germany, mother born NY,  lived at 104 Zabriskie St, Jersey City, Hudson, NJ with husband Hugh, age 35, and three children, Helen (3), Robert(2) and Hugh (2).

1920 Census: Age 37, but she now says her father was French, not German.  I suspect this was due to Alsace becoming French after WWI, or perhaps the anti-German sentiment.  Lived 38 Bleeker St, Jersey City.  


Burial site: Flower Hill Cemetery, Union City, NJ


Hugh WALLACE

Twin of Robert?

Burial site: Flower Hill Cemetery, Union City, NJ

Elmer G. Bridgham believed he went to Whitneyville, Maine about
1810.


Betsey LANE

Maine Families in 1790


William MULLINS

Mayflower Pilgrim


Alice or Mary Alice ATWOOD?

Mayflower Pilgrim.  Last name and pedigree is not certain, "Atwood" is flatly disputed by Caleb Johnson
WFT db=alirose4tee&id=I1076 claims she is Alice Atwood. I do not understand how she could be buried in England if she died the first winter at Plymouth.


Dr. Joseph BRIDGHAM Jr.

From Elmer G. Bridgham:

Joseph Junior, son of Joseph Bridgham Senior and Mercy Wensley, was
born April 16, 1701.  He was my great-great-great-grandfather. He
graduated at Harvard College in 1719 and studied medicine (perhaps
with his uncle John) and settled in Boston where he was a physician
and apothecary.  By the death of his uncle, Dr. John Bridgham of Ipswich,
he came into some property besides that which he inherited
from his father.  On October 12, 1722 [hard to read] he married
Abigail Willard, granddaughter of the president of Harvard College.
The ceremony was performed by Rev. Peter Tatcher, Samuel Willard was
the president of the college.  This grandaughter's name was Abigail...
[he goes on to give an incorrect pedigree for Abigail]
...
About 1732 he moved with this family to Plympton, Massachusetts.  That part
of Plympton is now Carver. I wonder why he went down there.  He had two sons
and three daughters and they were about school age.  Where did they go to
school?  Or did Joseph and Abigail teach them at home. No doubt
they were competent to do it.  He took an active part in the
affairs of the town.  He was town clerk in 1739 and a selectman in 1745.  
He lies buried in an ancient burying ground in North Carver.  
He died September 25, 1753. Mrs. Bridgham lived with her son Dr. Joseph 3rd
in Seekonk.  She died in 1776 and lies buried on Seekonk Common.
Joseph Junior's will, September 12, 1751 is on file in the Probate
office in Plympton.

Baptized Ben Franklin.
Willard Geneology, 1915.
Buried in the Old Granary Burying Ground, Boston, MA, but I cannot find his stone -- many of the stones are too worn to read.

Rumor is that he died after cutting himself eating oysters.
