Descendant note:
My BIGELOW data is currently in the form of notes
and letters collected by my great grandmother Adda Timmons MOSS in the
1890's. Perhaps of greatest interest to you and other researchers is a
copy she made of notes of an interview with Dr. Eliphaz BIGELOW
(probably the Israel Eliphaz Bigelow whose bio is on your site.)
He was a nephew of her grandmother Mary Milvina BIGELOW who had
married William D. Daugherty. Her mother was Mary Dimmis Daugherty. Adda's
uncle G. W. Darety (sic) conducted the interview. The notes include the
family information on the CUSTIS (not CURTIS) family and it's connection
to George Washington. I have been amazed that the misspelling of this name
as CURTIS persists. Most history books speak of the CUSTIS family relations
to Washington. In my mother's possession is a cloisonne and pearl pin that
is supposed to have been owned/worn by Martha Washington. I have no documentation
of this but have heard of this and the CUSTIS family since I was a child.
My grandfather, Adda's son had told the story. Finding the notes was both
exciting and disappointing. Exciting because
it leant credence to the pin's story; disappointing because it showed no
direct relation to the CUSTIS family. Eliphaz's notes also include the
battle his greatgrandfather Isaac was supposed to have been in the Rev
War. I too, have had no luck finding his service.
