Dates of children's birth suggest an earlier immigration and marriage somewhere, before he arrived at Yarmouth in 1765 and married Eunice Haley. There is a record of a George Bridgeo marrying Hannah Homan (d. 1765) in Marblehead, Massachusetts in 1752. There are baptismal records for children of George and Hannah Bridgeo, and/or "Bridgoe," in Marblehead between 1755 and 1762. This includes a Francis. Whoever this wife was, it seems likely that Francis Bridgeo's mother was someone other than Eunice, since Francis married Eunice's sister.
