I am seeking the parents of William Bridges who died in Polk Co., MO, ca. 1852, and his wife Nancy who died in Montgomery Co., MO, ca. 1873. He was born in Kentucky, possibly Barren Co., and married Nancy ? . She, also was born in Kentucky. When he died he left nine heirs as follows: Elizabeth J. Martin, Montgomery Co., MO; Edmund D. Bridges, Warren Co., MO ; William F. Bridges, Callaway Co., MO; Matilda Horton, Polk Co., MO; Malinda Bridges [Patton], Polk Co., MO; James Bridges, Polk Co., MO; Haden A. Bridges, Polk Co., MO; John Davidson Bridges, Polk Co., MO; Marion C. Bridges, Polk Co., MO. Seeking information on any and all of the above.

Roger, I am glad to see your post. This wonderful group of people has been much too quiet lately. My BRIDGES did not migrate to MO until after WWII, so I cannot be of much help except to tell you that there is a Peter BRIDGES buried close to my HUDSON family at Oak Hill Cemetery in Carrollton, Carroll Co, MO. My parents spoke as if they (or someone on Mother's side of the family) had known him. I have a picture of his grave stone somewhere. But, as usual I cannot find it when I want it.
