Elias Bridgewater (M)
(14. Jan. 1792 - 24. Feb. 1861), #324145
Elias Bridgewater was born on 14. Jan. 1792 at Kentucky. He married
Ruamy Parmer. Elias Bridgewater married an unknown person on 20. Oct. 1850 at Schuyler County, Illinois. He died on 24. Feb. 1861 at Schuyler County, Illinois, at age 69. He was buried in Feb. 1861 at Gillette Cemetery, Bainbridge, Schuyler County, Illinois. Author believes Elias 1792 moved from Kentucky to Scott county, Indiana in the1820s. From there he moved to Schuyler county, Illinois in about 1837. He was married a second time in Schuyler county- to Sarah Tingle- the sister of Margaret Tingle Deal. Margaret Deal is the grandmother of Eliza Deal Bridgewater- wife of Elias' grandson Allen P. Bridgewater. Sarah Tingle Bridgewater is the grandmother in-law of Allen P- Ruamy Parmer is the grandmother in blood. In moreplain terms- Elias married a second time, to a woman who was related to his grandson's wife. This suggests that the Bridgewater, Deal and Tingle familes are all connected in Kentucky, Indiana and Illinois. From my more recent research I have found that the Bridgewater and Deal families were together in Marion and Shelby counties, Missouri and the same two families were together in the 20th century in Gallatin county Montana. Chris C. Bridgewater is buried next to Emily C. Deal in Bozeman, Montana.

Spelling of christian name is somewhat in question: Lou Ryker Vail spells it "Merle", whereas Agnes Ryker Bridwell (Mearl's mother) spells it "Mearl" in the family bible record. We have chosen the mother's spelling as correct.
