Bridgeport Directories
Well, you just never know where you will find the information that you are seeking, but the library is a great place to start. These listings were found at the library in Bridgeport, CT and submitted by Jim Smith, found in the back of the city directories of Bridgeport. They are not death records, just a list of people who died in Bridigeport that year, I guess we can call it an index.
