  1. 1.  Bridget M. "Bridge" Rossiter was born Abt Mar 1867, Caplin Bay, Newfoundland; died 9 Jan 1929, Bristol, Hartford, Connecticut, United States; was buried Abt 11 Jan 1929, Bristol, Hartford, Connecticut, United States.

    Other Events:

    • Residence: 1925-1929, Bristol, Hartford, Connecticut, United States

    Notes:

    Residence:
    Bridget and John Foley moved to Bristol, Connecticut and had sixteen children, six of whom died young. (per the late Ray Curran). Ray's figure is plausible since the 1910 US Census shows that 10 of John and Bridget's 14 children were still living. I also found one more daughter who was born in 1910, after this census.
