Hi Wes, Betty, Wanda et al, I'm here, and as a matter of fact I am this very moment working on a little census study of Isaac Bridges and his buddies. (Probably repeating work that's already been done, but I'm just trying to understand the relationships.) I didn't know Calvin's middle name was Jones... very interesting! Sorry I don't have anything to add to this discussion, but to change the subject... I just noticed that Benjamin BUSBIN (who married Temperance BRIDGES in Oglethorpe in 1816) was living right by Isaac BRIDGES, and Bridges B. THOMPSON. Is Temperance a sister of Isaac??
