Cabinetmaker, lived at 33 Prescott St. just around corner from Amos Upham & his family, including son Charles Amos who later married Mary Cleveland Bridgham. I am guessing that this Henry is Emily Stetson Crocker's brother, and that Mary Cleveland met Charles Amos when visiting her uncle in Worcester. However, the
Crocker Family Genealogy (James Russell Crocker, 1952.)
says that Emily Stetson Crocker was an only child.It is possible that he is not the son of Luther & Caroline.
Lived at 33 Prescott St., Worcester, MA in 1880.
Guessing that he is the son of Cyrus Henry B Sr. and Miranda Greenwood. Evidence: Cyrus' will mentions son George and he named a daughter Maranda G. Gravestone is in same cemetery and dates are right for him to be a son. Also, Jarius Bridgham will probated in Leeds, ME in 1855 mentions George and Cyrus Bridgham, brothers of Minot. 1880 Minot census, age 53, farmer.
Lost three children in 1864.Elmer G. Bridgham, his son, confirms this and says his father was
a farmer. "He was more a scholar than farmer. He read history and
studied geology and botany. I used to go on trips with him to
collect geological specimens and flowers.
In 1850 he went to California via the Isthmus of Panama. He returned
in about three years via Nicaragua. He favor the Nicaragua route
for the canal. He urged his children to study. He helped me prepare
for college at Hebron Academy. I earned part of my way there by doing
janitor work. He was a good man.
Lost three children (Maranda, Charles, George W.) in 1864. 1880 minot census, age 46.

in need whether they could pay her much or little. She was killed
in a automobile accident while on her way to care for a sick
person. She was a good woman."
