ARC TBC.............Elizabeth Bridgewater

[Dennis]

As far as I can see from the censuses and IGI they're the same man, NL. A curiously late baptism gives the birth date as 1810. It's in the 1808-1809 region in the censuses:
Name:
John Bridgewater
Baptism/Christening Date:
06 Oct 1822
Baptism/Christening Place:
Dudley, Worcester, England
Birth Date:
30 Nov 1810
Father's Name:
Jesse Bridgewater
Mother's Name:
Mary Bridgewater

Jesse appears to have died in 1838 Dudley.

Yes, I think so, NL. Having looked through Family Search and Ancestry I wonder whether it may be possible to take the Bridgewaters further back from Jesse Decimus e.g. (subject to further checks!):
