Interview with Anne Bridgman of Bridgman Farm - Anne Describes Her Farm's History and the Original Crown Grant to Levi Lewis

I'm Anne Bridgman, and I'm on Bridgman's Farm in Winona which today is a small pick-your-own farm but has quite a long history and I guess it really began with a Crown Grant which actually the Puddicombe farm is part of the same Crown Grant which was given to Levi Lewis in 1798. There have been several generations of different branches of the family. It went from Lewis to Wilson to Bridgman and it was my great-grandfather that was the first Bridgman named here.
