My grandmother, who's maiden name is Bridwell, is in her 80s. The story was that brothers came over from England that changed their name to Bridwell from Bridewell. The story also says that there was a prison on Bridewell land? Have no idea where-----anyone every heard of this?

Also

The story of the Kincaid brothers that left for Ireland from Scotland----there seems to be on named Lord Baron Kinkade--father to the John Kinkade Senior that came to America in 1700s--or could be 1600s, unsure of date.

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated :) Renee.
