Bridget Fox and her twin brother Patrick were born prematurely on June 18, 1919 at the family residence at 944 N. Main St., Butte, Montana, USA. (The house no longer exists.)

Her parents were:
John Jack Fox (1879 - 1936), and
Mary Ann Lowney Sullivan Fox (1880 - 1949)

Sadly, Bridget was stillborn. She was premature, and there were complications of childbirth.

Her twin brother Patrick did survive,
Pat lived until December 19, 1968, at which time he passed away in Detroit, Wayne County, Michigan, USA.

Bridget's half-siblings were as follows. They were children from her mother's first marriage with Daniel Sullivan (1867-1912):

1. Mary "Mae" Sullivan b: 5 Jul 1900 in Inches, Eyeries, County Cork, Ireland
2. Ellen "Nell" Sullivan b: 3 Nov 1901 in Inches, Eyeries, County Cork, Ireland
3. Michael Sullivan b: 30 Oct 1903 in Inches, Eyries, County Cork, Ireland
4. Margaret "Peg" Sullivan b: 13 Jul 1905 in Inches, Eyeries, County Cork, Ireland
5. Julia Josephine "Sister Consolata" Sullivan b: 1906 in Inches, Eyeries, Co. Cork, Ireland
6. Jeremiah Sullivan
7. Agnes M. Sullivan b: 22 Oct 1910 in Ireland

From the moment she was born and died, throughout the succeeding years Bridget was always remembered as the infant daughter of Mary Anne and Jack who passed away at birth.

She was never forgotten.

She was remembered.
