Hello Rod,
Allow me to introduce myself. I'm Mary Marshall Bates the wife of Richard
Fenton Bates whose 2nd great grandmother was Ruby Bigelow, daughter of Amasa
Bigelow and Abigail Skinner. In reviewing the Bigelow Family Genealogy
on the Bigelow Family Page, I see that Ruby (1592C.B) and David Faulkner's
family was not traced.
Several of us have done family research. As a matter of fact, mine is ongoing.
However, if you care to post it, the attachment is four generations of Known
Descendants of Ruby Bigelow with dources. By the way, my husband's grandmother
was Emma Bigelow Burns who married Edward Thurber Bates.

William Bigelow d 1863 Bklyn, NY & CT age 78
Posted by: DM powers@ptd.net
Date: November 03, 2001 at 16:10:02
Brooklyn Standard Union Nov 25, 1863. BIGELOW. - At Hartford, Conn., on
Saturday night last, of ossification of the heart, William BIGELOW, formerly
of Brooklyn, in the 78th year of
his age. The older citizens of Brooklyn will observe this decease with strong
and peculiar emotion. Mr. BIGELOW for many years occupied the premises where
now stands the Atlantic
Bank, and touched every chord of sympathy by his social nature, cordial kindness
and universal good will. To these genial qualities he added a high order
of intelligence, and was active
in various institutions, chief of which was the Apprentices Library, which
had a large share of his attention. He was of the class of persons who, once
known, are never to be forgotten,
and should have a place in any gallery of Brooklyn portraits.

Hello Rod
I just stumbled across your web site while doing a search on Peru, NY.
I noticed that you have a Nicholas Curtis Bigelow who married Ann Eliza
Clark in 1843. I'm trying to research the Elisha and Praxa Clark family
of Peru. They had at least 3 children born there: Julius, Caroline
Mary Ann, and Luther Drury. Luther was born 11 Aug 1816 and married
Elsie Maria Hawks 12 Jun 1844 in Peru. After that I have nothing more
on Elisha or Praxa - no marriage or death dates or anything.
We're going to be doing some sightseeing in Vermont (have a B & B
in
Swanton) and then driving over to the Peru/Plattsburgh/Beekmantown area
as that's where my relatives moved to. I was wondering if you can give
me any hints as to perhaps a cemetery that was often used in perhaps the
mid 1800's in case Elisha & Praxa are buried in Peru or anyplace else
I
might look for local records. I'll be in Peru on a Sat.
Thank you so much for any help you might be able to give.

While perusing your site today, I discovered a reference to my great-great-great
grandfather, Aholiab Bigelow. In the text of this reference, I dicovered
a blank among the names of his children "R_____(illegible). This should
read "Rosilla." Rosilla (my great-great grandmother) was born
April 13, 1834, and married John Sylvanus Robinson, son of Josiah Robinson,
in 1857. They built a homestead in Neponset, Bureau County, llinois
where they reared 3 children, Arthur "Cap" Robinson, Richard Warren Robinson
(my great grandfather), and Lottie May Robinson. Rosilla (Rose) Bigelow
Robinson died in November 1891 (of dysentery from drinking bad water at the
Bureau Co. Fair) and is buried in the Floral Hill Cemetery in Neponset, IL.
My father is currently undertaking the preservation of the grave stone of
Aholiab Bigelow, which we unearthed at the Buda, IL cemetery several years

Hi. I stumbled across some of your work that you've placed on the Internet

I have my Great Grandmother Mary Fuller Clark's diary in which she makes
so many references to Mrs. Mary Morse. On one occasion, she wrote, in

Mary was the mother of Alfred. I know that there were two Alfreds from Eaton

Dear Rod,
Thank you so much for taking your time to help me out.
I am really interested in trying to get my family history in order because
nobody in my family really knows. I went to my parents house last week
and looked through some pictures to try and get some names in order so that
my search would be a bit easier. My dad's name is Clifton Lee, (born
1941), my grandpa was Robert Montague, (born circa 1898), my great grandpa
was Clifton Montague (born circa, 1872- he died at age 26 from TB, and was
the State Vice Councilor in Virginia. Married to Virginia Lee (Michell)).
His father was Johnathan Bigelow. (I don't really know when he was
born, and I don't know his middle name. I do know that he fought for
the Union army in the Civil War and I believe he was from Virginia.)
If you could give me some tips on how I should go about tracking

Hello,
My name is Don Shafer, 3015 Frampton Dr. Toledo Ohio 43614 Telephone
419 385 0475. Please post my query as
many places as you can. David Bigelow Birth around 1836. Father
Jonathan Bigelow, Mother Polly Hines. In 1860 living with father and
mother. In 1870 living next to father. Alone. Locations of both is Auglaize
Co. Ohio. I believe he was in the civil war. His father died in 1876.
I lost him in 1880C. According to death records he is supposed to be
the father of Juliet, Dianna and Dora Bigelow. The mother is Charlotte
Harris, daughter of Jonathan and Elizabeth Bradford Harris. No birth
records found and no marriage record for him and Charlotte. When Charlotte
did get married she was married under her maiden name. So you
see I really have a problem.

I stumbled on to your work today and was enormously delighted to see
the headstones of my Bigelow line for me to study. I haven't worked
on these line for a long time. I sent the information I had and found
on to Alaska to the Bigelow family but I never had the headstones.
In fact this is the first that I have seen of them. I will have to
see if you have anything else that I do not have and see if I can contribute
to your work in any way. So I will have to get back to you on this.
The above reference did not appear on Mark Bigelow and Orilla Sutfin Smith.
I later found a goodly bunch of material on the Sutphen Family in N.J. and
found Orilla's father's information in the Revolutionary War archives.
He was in one of the main troups of George Washingtons and he of course went
to other areas during the war. I have a few stories that I learned
about this group.
Do you know anything more on Rachel Wheeler's family. I can not find
out a whole bunch about her family. There was stated to be a plate
in our family that came originally from the Mayflower. I don't find
any decendant from the Mayflower except I have not found a whole lot about
Alexander Smith's family. Smith's could be from the Mayflower.
The Wheeler family however, come from Brewsters. So this could be it.
But in the Wheeler family that I have checked does not have this Rachael
Wheeler identified in any of their books. The Wheelers came from Conneticut
near the Bigelow Family.
I have a number of Mark Bigelow family. His daughter Ida Ellen is my
grandmother on my father's side of the family.
How can I get some photo copies of the Bigelow grave stones. Clinton
Co., N.Y. is not very helpful to most of my relatives who have gone there
to get genealogical information. It appears that the library closed
it doors to genealogical persuits. I was in Clinton Co. N.Y. about
32 years ago and we were unable to find what I had tried to pursue. You cannot
imagine how joyful I am to see this information, especially the
headstones.
Please contact me, We may be able to help each other. I may desire
to know more on Hiram's family.

M. Pomeroy, born abt. 1834. Josiah died sometime before 1836
because Persis remarried Cutler Brown May 29, 1836.
Persis died before 1844 because Cutler Brown remarried a Malana Beach.
Alexander and Eliza Pomeroy were living in Port Huron, Michigan in 1850 at
the home of my husbands g-g-g-grdfather, Asa Selden Jones and his wife, Abigail.
Selden's parents were Elisha Jones and Sally Meacham. There are several
mentions of Aunt Sarah, who was living in Cleveland, in letters and probate
records of Selden Jones. Would any of this fit in your family
info? Let me hear from you. Sharon Jones

Hi Rod,
My wife descends from Robert Day. I have information on the parents
and lineage of Anna Day, wife of James Bigelow (1764 - 1840) if you are interested.
Her parents were Noah Day and Ann Loomis. I didn't know if you already
have the information and just
haven't posted it, if you don't have it, or if it's a family that you're not
really interested in. But I thought I'd make contact with you in case
you'd be interested.Let me know if you would like more info., including her
birthdate, etc.
I really enjoyed visiting your page. The cemetery pictures are a very
nice touch.
Take Care!

5 children. This is the info I have (from the book "The Descendants of Andrew
