Found John Hardy and my grandma in 1930

Now I know why I couldn't find my grandmother and great grandfather in the 1930 census. They've got his name down as John BRIDGEN!

One letter off really makes a difference. I managed to find this record the same way I found Ada. Just did a search using first name only. No luck with John but I tried Elsie. Sure enough, Elsie Bridgen appeared. I knew she had to be living in Coopers and I couldn't figure out why I couldn't find it. But now i know.

YAY! And now I can figured out the rest of John Hardy's children! :)
