His father, Lloyd Vernet Bridges Sr., was born 1 May 1887 and died on his 75th birthday, the first of May, 1962. His mother Harriet Evelyn Brown (b. 15 Jan 1893) turned 20 the day Lloyd was born.
Tod Browning
Grew up in Louisville with his cousin, "Old" Pete Browning, a 3 time batting champ, who stole 103 bases in 1887. Pete's commissioning of a bat provided the start of the Hillerich & Bradsby bat company, famous for their Louisville Slugger model. The eccentric Pete drank heavily, apparently due to a chronic mastoid infection, and his catchphrase was "I can't hit the ball, unless I hit the bottle."
