My name is Belinda Kent and I have done some research on the
Bigelow
Cemetery in Madison Co.  Our Kents are buried there.  I have
discovered that
the people in the cemetery are related to the Samuel Kent and Desire
Cushman
Kent family.  I found her Bible records in the Union Co. OGS, which I
will
send to you.  Everyone in the cemetery are related and related to the
Kents
from her Bible records.  Desire Cushman was the first white grand
daughter
born in the US.  She was grand daughter of the Howlands that came
over on the
Mayflower.  I believe my research is starting to prove that most of
the
people buried in the cemetery may be descendants of the settlers of
Plymouth
Colony.  I have discovered some stones that were not recorded , such
as
Tinkham. Which is also a name from the colony.  I have been
researching our
Kent line for two years.  I may have made mistakes, who doesn't.  I
have not
put everything I have found in my files yet.  This letter is to help
you be
aware that there is a very good possiblilty that we come from
Plymouth Colony
Descendants.  Our Kents are buried there and most also be related to
Hannah
Kent.  If you look at my notes you may start to see the connections.
You may
need to do a liitle more research because I have not sent you
everything.  I
can tell you off hand that Lucinda Kent married E.W.Barlow whom was
first
married to a Bigelow.  They had a daughter and his first wife died.
He then
married Lucinda , whom was the daughter of Hiram Kent who is buried
in the
cemetery.  Lucinda had a brother Cicero.  That is our line.  Our line
is as
follows:
James Kent from VA
Silas Kent from NJ married Olive West from Conn.
Hiram Kent from Franklin Co. OHio married Maranda(Miranda) Harrington
Cicero Kent from Ohio married Margaret Morford
Albert Kent from Madison Co. married Edith Poling
Roy Kent from Madison Co. married Hazel Hildreth
Donald Dean Kent from Ohio married Shirley Elleman    still living
Dwight Dean Kent born in Logan Co. Ohio married Belinda Lambour
our sons
Kyle David Kent married Jaclyn Sewall
Michael Dean Kent not married.
