    Hi Rita, Yes, your info about Joseph Bridger is correct. I do not have Mary Webb in my file. Which Samuel are you referring to?

    Regards,
    Elaine

    Rita, I just realized that you are referring to Samuel, the father of Joseph! Sorry. The information I have says that Samuel’s wife’s name was Mary Newce or Neuce. Where did you get the Webb name from?

    Thanks,
    Elaine
