I read some of your other messages on your Bridges family. You've been stuck on this a long time. I know how that is as i have several brick walls in my research, some of them going back 25 years or more.

There are images of some of the Arkansas marriages on familysearch.org. I looked at the one for Mary E Bridges to W T Raley and for W J Bridges to Katie Love. The signatures of Jesse Bridges on the Raley marriage and W J Bridges on the other marriage record sure look like they were made by the same person. I'm attaching an image to this message that shows the 2 signatures.

Do you know who J W Brightwell was? He was the bondsman along with W J Bridges on the Searcy Co marriage record. He was surely a relative or close friend to W J Bridges. If you can figure out who he was you might uncover some information on W J Bridges' family.

Also, the 1910 census listing for W J Bridges says he had been married more than once. So, that marriage from Carroll Co, AR that I mentioned to Edna Finch/French could be his first marriage. There's supposed to be an image with that record but it's not presently available. If it's one with his signature then you could probably tell if it's your W J Bridges.
