• Notes

  BRIDGMAN, IRWIN was in Waterloo by January 7, 1869 when his card appeared in the Waterloo Chronicle of that dates "I. Bridgman M. D. Physician, Surgeon and Accoucheur. Coroner for the County of Wentworth, Waterloo Ont. Can be seen at Hewitts Hotel until a permanent office can be secured." The only information on him is found in the comment which accompanies the card. Dr. Bridgman, whose card appears in another column, has located in Waterloo. He is a gentleman of high literary standing, having stood second in a graduating class of sixty, and has considerable professional experience. The Hamilton Times, in referring to his removal from Stoney Creek, speaks of him in very flattering terms. It says that since he has commenced the practice of his profession he has" stood well with both his professional brethren and the general public in this vicinity, who will all wish him success in his new sphere of labor." On August 5, 1869 the Chronicle reports that he had moved to Smithville, not having been able to obtain a house in Waterloo. The Canada Lancet December 1, 1878 has the final words Deaths. In Toronto, Oct. 31, Irwin Bridgman, M. D. , in the 34th year of his age. From: Doctors in Waterloo County 1852-1925 by Alexander D. Campbell
