I was in IOW in Sept and researched info on Joseph Bridger(my historical line) and found: Joseph Bridger was the youngest son of Samuel Bridger. He was born 1628 at the family manor of Woodmancote in Gloucester England. He imigrated to VA and was a member of the council of the House of Burgesses and later a member of the council under Sir William Berkley. He is buried in the Chancel of ST Lukes Episcopel Church. He was very involved in the Chuch and when it was rebuilt (after Civil War) his body was moved from his plantation nearby to the church. He was a Gentleman and loyal to England. He had eight children one , a son, he named Joseph born -1655 in IOW VA.
