Additional Comments:

On Easter Day of April 8, 1996, at the Liberty Hill Primitive Baptist 
Church, Gertrude Burk Woodfin (born 5 Jan 1906) informed me that John Cary 
Bridges made a promise to a woman, who was on her deathbed, not to marry. 
Her name was Mae D. Woodfin. He kept the promise.  On May 21, 1997, Kirney 
Bridges told me that he had heard that story also. Mae Woodfin was born on 
12 Dec 1884 and died on 19 May 1910.  She is buried in the same cemetery as 
John Cary Bridges; Liberty Hill Primitive Baptist Church Cemetery in Coosa 
Co., AL. John was born 6 Jan 1882 in Coosa Co., AL & died 9 Jun 1949 in 
Coosa Co., AL. Researched by Ronald D. Bridges in 1996, 1997, and 1998.
