I have Robert Bridges (1795 SC - 1888 Pickens Co) who married Nancy Randall (1795 SC - 1860 Pickens). They had 3 unknown daughters and 2 sons of which I only know one named Silas Bridges (1817 SC - aft 1870). There are several other Bridges living in and around Pickens Co, AL but I have been unable to connect them. On the 1840 census there are Robert Bridges, another Robert Bridges, Silas Bridges and Edward Bridges. Do you have any further info on these? i haven't seen the MS 1880 census you mentioned but according to the 1850 Pickens census, Catherine unk Teer was secondly married to William F. Bridges not J. W. Bridges. Elizabeth Teer is living in their hh age 14. Hope to hear from you. Teresa april0496@aol.com
