Hello BRIDGES researchers, I am beginning to research my BRIDGES line in Rutherford and Cleveland Counties in North Carolina. I would like to correspond with anyone else who has a link with this line. My direct line: William BRIDGES, b. ca. 1726 in VA; mar. Name Unknown ca. 1745 in VA. Moses BRIDGES (son of William), b. 1745-1750; mar. Sarah ca. 1772; d. ca.1818 Samuel "Mad Sam" BRIDGES (son of Moses and Sarah), b. 1774; mar. Mollie HAMRICK, bef.1795; d. Jul,18, 1840. (Buried: "Mad Sam" BRIDGES Cemetery in Cleveland County, NC) Mary "Polly" BRIDGES (dau. of Samuel and Mollie), b. ca. 1807 in Cleveland Co., NC; mar. Robert "Robin" GREEN, Jul. 17, 1834 in Rutherford Co., NC; d. ca. 1881-1882 in Rutherford Co., NC This is where my BRIDGES line runs into my GREEN(E) line and proceeds through Samuel GREENE, Joseph Kimsey GREENE, Clyde Alexander GREENE, Joseph Clyde GREENE, and then to me. Thanks to all who take the time to look over this posting. Shirley (Greene) Pittman moochie@rfci.net
