I'm searching for the family of John and Britton Bridges, who bought
land in Livingston County, KY in 1804. Before coming to Livingston
County, they evidently came through Williamson County, TN, where Britton
purchased the land in Livingston from Jacob Scott. Britton married
Polly Scott, and she and at least one of their 3 children (Rebecca,
Edwin, William) were born in TN. Britton died by 1810. His children
inherited from the estate of a John Bridges in 1816, whose estate was
administered by a Jesse Williams. One person said that Britton and John
may be the children a John Bridges, son of Faith and Edwin
Bridgers/Bridges of NC. Does anyone know to whom this family belongs?
Or do any of your lines connect to Caldwell/Logan/Christian Counties in
KY? These counties neighbor Livingston, and there were lots of Bridges
there, too. Thanks. Dawnene Bridges Young
