Leslie: This book doesn't show the will info. for John but it does show Edwin. It shows only the Northampton Co. recording and the date as 1783 and WB-1/265. There are several spellings of BRIDGER/S for Northampton Co. and they include: Elizabeth, 1814; John, 1764; Joseph, 1810; Joseph, 1808; Rachel, 1764; Turner, 1804; William, 1899; William, 1763 and Willis, 1802. If any of these folks are 'your,' let me know and will end the will book info. ...Candy :) > [Original Message] > From: ~~ Leslie ~~ <Aug67@att.net> > To: <clroth1229@earthlink.net> > Date: 9/8/2003 10:48:01 AM > Subject: Re: [NCROOTS] Sutton Wills > > > Candy, > > I know that the will of my GGGGgrandfather, John BRIDGES, > was probated on 5 Feb 1816 in NC.
