About Bridget Stone

http://stonehistory1800.webs.com/1800bridgetstone.htm Bridget Stone & Stephen Boylan

Many of the Stone children lived to be very old, the oldest, as far as we know, was Bridget, who married Stephen Boylan, and lived at Barra Head. Her obituary in the Cape Breton Post, in March of 1904, had her down as 105 years old. We believe her to be the second born after Jonas, born in 1799, she was probably born in 1800.
