Bridgets and Sissons in Folker Township

Mary Jo Sisson March — 10 Oct 2003 2:02:13 GMT

Wendy: I can probably help you with the Folker Township, Clark Co., MO Bridgets. My maiden name is Sisson, and the Sissons and your Bridgets are related. Here are the Bridgets who are buried in Conkle Cemetery in Folker Township:

Wm. Bridget: d. 4 May 1896, aged 71y, 5m, 14d
Sarah Bridget: wife of W. M., 26 July 1830 - 9 April 1892
Samuell Bridget: 19 Oct. 1870 - 19 Nov. 1915
George T. Bridget: 1849 - 1928
Sophia M. (Sisson) Bridget: 1856 - 1931
also
Bell, Amy R.: dau. of Wm. & S. Bridget, d. 17 Oct. 1869, aged 10 y, 9m, 7d (This seems to have an error, how could she have been their dau, and died at the early age of 10, and had the last name of Bell.)

George Bridget was my Dad's "Uncle George," and George and Sarah lived right down the road from the Sissons.

I sometimes visit the Conkle cemetery, since my Sissons are buried there. If this email gets through to you let me know and I will write more. My personal email will receive but won't send.

Would like to hear from you.

Bridget Family

jhoeflein — 10 Jan 2007 4:07:41 GMT

I have gone back to Thomas Bridget and Mary Catherine (Haun) Bridget (early 1800's). I'm looking to extend back further from Thomas Bridget.

Here is the info I have on him-
He was born in Lock Haven, PA
Father: Thomas Bridget
Mother: Ruth Bridget
He was also married to Roselle Timgley and Etta Cheesmen
He had 6 children: Thomas (Bud), Norman, Lena Catherine, George (who I've traced to me already), William and Ross.
Mary Catherine Haun (his wife) was born in 1832
This is all the info I have and the farthest I've been able to trace back

ANY info on the Bridget (or Bridgett) family would be useful.
Thanks in advance

Cora Bridget

thehotts — 5 Oct 2005 5:50:48 GMT

There is a Cora B. Bridget listed in the 1880 Census for Scott, Putnam, WV. She is listed as age 5. Head of household is I.E. Spence (female). Her occupation is listed as servant (not sure that's correct) given her age and her birthplace is listed as WV.

My paternal grandmother's name was Lucy Izora Bridget McCandles Mercer. I have nothing that lists the names of her parents, but our family bible says her grandparents were Cora Bell Bridget and Sam McCandles. I'm wondering if this Cora B. Bridget is indeed Cora Bell Bridget.

Does anyone have any information on her? Parents names, date of birth, if she was indeed married to Sam McCandles, etc.

Thanks.

William also went by the name of Jim, Jacob, Red. Unable to locate any information about him. Mary Jane married a man named John S. Lucus in Marion County, IN, in 1907, I have that record, but they seem to have disappeared after that. It was reported that Mary Jane had other children, Harriet, and a John Jr. but I cannot find any records. I have been told that she, Mary Jane died in approx 1910 to 1912. Have checked the census and nothing, Would appreciate any help from anyone. Thank you.
