'I have not proven this relationship yet, however evidence is strong to suggest that they were married. ANNA FRAZER BRIDGE was a widow by 1880 , according to census and City of Lexington, Kentucky records. BENJAMIN BRIDGE died in 1878. Alone, this would not be enough proof to make the claim.
However, additional evidence suggests that this is true, in that BENJAMIN BRIDGE was in the 5th Company Battalion, Washington Artillery of Louisiana, along with the brother of ANNA FRASER BRIDGE, ROBERT W. FRAZER, and her future brother in law, AVERY SHALL WINSTON. This suggests to me that the marriage occurred. Further research is needed. The couple had one daughter, MARY C. BRIDGE, who married JOHN M. McCORMICK , who was out of Missouri.'
