I thought I would start this blog off by showing a few of the pictures my Grandmother, Edith Hilda McDade nee Bridger, had in the metal "ditty" box she kept in the sideboard. 31 Bendon Valley, Croydon. This is where Edith Hilda was born and where Harry and Louise Emma lived until they moved to Essex. . Louise Emma with some of her children. I will check but I think they go from left to right Lilian, Rose, Edith Daisy and Claude is at the front. Bill Bridger outside the front door of his mother's house while visiting from America. This has to be taken before 1925 because that's when Louise Emma, Lilian, Claude and Daisy emigrated to America Charles Bridger. I know this because Edith wrote his name on the back of the picture. Taken before he went to America These will have to do to begin with. I have more but I need to look at the originals to make sure I am giving the right information. I do have a lot of information on a tree and I can email it
