Dora, I have a book, _The Devil Discovered_, by Enders A. Robinson. In it he states that there is a lot of confusion over the identity of Bridget's last husband, because there were four men in the area by the name of Edward Bishop. Three of them were related to Edward Bishop of Beverly. The fourth was a sawyer of Salem, with no known relationship to the Bishops of Beverly; he was the husband of Bridget. I don't know how accurate this is. I have another book that talks about Bridget's marriage, but I can't lay my hands on it right now, as it is packed away. It is _The Devil in the Shape of a Woman_, by Carol F. Karlsen. If I remember correctly, in it the author stated that her last marriage raised eyebrows because her husband was quite a bit younger than she. This book is well researched and could be worth looking into. Regards, Kathy Smith
