Colin appears to have Lindley Bridgman, 1847, Barnstaple in his tree.

Rereading his post, he could mean that William Bridgman/Elisabeth Burgess were in the late 1700's.

Added:
Colin has William Bridgman, 1775, Gosport, Devon in his tree.

Hi Colin welcome to the boards

Could you give some idea where these people were from and when born

Have you looked to see if anyone else has them in their tree on here?
