Wanda, this is my line. I would like copies of these old papers and will reimburse your postage and copying expense. (I'm not sure if I already have them in my files or not - but would like to see them anyway.) If you prefer to scan them into .jpeg or .tif files and e-mail them to me, that would be fine too. I am also interested in knowing where you found the papers, etc. For anyone who might also be interested in this line, the children of William Bridges missed one name - that of Morris Bridges. Rev.
