My GG Grandfather's name was Floyd Preston Bridwell. He was in some sort of
automobile accident in Oregon. Somehow he wound up in a Klamath Falls
nursing home, a peraplegic. He died in 1957 and his death certificate says
he was buried in Memorial Park in Klamath falls. I need to know more about
this man. I have tried to contact the highway patrol hoping for a accident
report. They say they wouldn't know how to go about something like this. I
feel like I have exhausted my online resources and can't travel there to
reseach myself. He abandoned his family when my grandfather was very
young. I would like to know anything about this man. Why was he in Oregon?
Was the accident cause by his drinking ,as it was rumored? Did anyone else
die with him or was killed in the accident? Did he ever remarry? If anyone
could help me I would really appreciate it. Thank you!
Thelma Mansker.
