Transcription & Additional Information provided by: Linda Blum-Barton

Nathaniel S. Bridges was one of 11 children born in Coweta County, GA to Thomas W. & Mary Elizabeth Moses Bridges. I have his birth date as 21 July 1851 according to his mother's Bible.  He was married in Erath County, TX on 18 Jul 1880 to Maggie or Mattie L. Phillips.  See more information and correspondence on my personal website - Blum-Barton

According to the 1910 Census, Maggie had 7 children with 4 living.  I have the following listed as their children: Unknown, died before 1910; Roscoe Bridges, d. Erath County, June 1883 - this is total supposition on my part that he may have been one of their deceased children - found a news article about his death but it did not list his parents;  Thomas M. Bridges, Louis Bridges, Kit Bridges, Mary Lee Bridges and Lena Bridges. 

Thomas M. Bridges - Have assumed this Thomas M. is Nat's son due to burial transcriptions found online at City of Stephenville's website. Buried in same plot as Nathaniel with his wife and children. He is not in Nat's 1900 Census HH in Erath Co. In 1910 Census, there is a male, age 24, his first name appears to end as ssa but could be Thomas and the middle initial looked like a W which is easily mistaken for an M. This son is working in retail at a drug store. Tom Bridges Jr. signed Nat's death certificate.

Louis Bridges - b. Nov 1885 - possibly died before 1910.

Kit Bridges - b. 06 Apr 1890 - d. 20 Nov 1970, Buried at Pearl Cemetery, Pearl, Coryell Co., TX with his wife, Lucy Kate Carpenter.  In 1910 Federal Census, is in HH of parents in Stephenville, Erath Co., TX as single.

Mary Lee and Lena Bridges are both in their parents' HH in 1900 & 1910.  Mary Lee b. Oct 1892 and Lena b. Nov. 1894.  No further information.
