Hi,

Looking at the 1822 marriage: Agnes Bridges and Richard Southey, Wellington, Somerset.  F M P transcription gives the witnesses as Ann Bridges, Elizabeth Bridges and ABEL Bridges.

Abel Bridges (1) died 1847 Wellington (1841 census: a farmer born 1763)

Abel Bridges (2) bpt 12 June 1807 at Langford Budville, Somerset.  From F M P transcription his parents were Abel Bridges and Agnes Bridges.  1841 census: Abel Bridges (2) also a farmer, is living with Abel Bridges (1) as above.
 
1852 Abel Bridges, a farmer married Mary Pursey, Somerset,

ADDED: From the Somerset parish Registers (F M P) Abel Bridges married Agnes Bird 27 March 1789 at Langford Budville.

These may not be the people you’re looking for, but worth noting if only for elimination purposes.
