My grandmother is going to be 101 in April and remembers "Nick" Bigelow
from North Wolcott. Her memory is untarnished and talks a lot about my
g-g-grandfather,Charles Richards,and his best friend Nicholas Bigelow.
On some of my g-g grandfather's CW pension papers, Mr. Bigelow went with
him to various meetings about the pension and signed papers as a witness.
I have gone up to the old homestead twice this past year and know approximately
where the Bigelows lived. (On the lake) (I have a distant picture of their
homestead in late 1800's-early 1900's) They both were in the the Civil
War, different regiments. Often talked about the war, which the women and
children were notable to share in. I believe this "Nick" may have named
his oldest son after my g-g grandfather, one William Charles Bigelow. Be
more than glad to share. I am from Horseheads, NY. My name is Frank Patterson.
I have looked hard for the regiment that Mr.Bigelow served in and any picture
of him. Grandma would get such a kick to see one if it were available.He
will be in my book, if I ever get it done.It is basically about my g-g
grandfather and my best friend who was killed in Vietnam on Mothers Day,
May 12,1968.
I have an original picture,of which I am going to make a copy of the
Nicolas Bigelow house on Lake Ontario. Distant shot,but shows what the
area looked like close to a hundred years ago.I am really interested to
see if any of your relatives have a picture of Nicholas Bigelow in order
that I could show my Grandmother and possibly use in the book I am writing
about g-g grandfather,Charles Richards.Grandma descibes them as "very,very
good friends" spent a lot of time together.Described Nicholas as having
a full gray beard,had some kind of growth that was distinguishing,etc.
Remembers his father Charles Lewis B.
