Mr. Bigelow, my name is Dick Garfield,
and
I ran across your GREAT site yesterday while searching under
Watertown, MA. I was born and raised in the southwestern corner of
New York State, with PA on both the south and west of us, in a 6
mile
sq.
county called French Creek. As you know that when the early
settlers
started
moving west they traveled in groups for protection. In this cornor
of
the
state there is at least 15 names of families that also appear in
the
early
settlers of Watertown. Garfield, Whitney, Gallup and etc. In the
OLD
FRENCH
CREEK Cemetery, where my GrGrGrandfather is buried there is also a
Mary
Bigelow who married a Merry. The front side of the marker has her
listed
as his wife, and on the back it shows her maiden name. I have
taken and
attached pictures of both the front and back of her stone plus the
stone
of
my GrGrGrandfsther George Garfield and his wife Ann.
Also, in looking over the Garfield's
listed
in your surnames I came across one that I didn't have, Susanna
Hager,(gdau
of Grace Bigelow) wife of Joseph Garfield, married 1787.`Would
this be
the Joseph, b.Sep 19, 1758, son of Samuel Garfield who had two
wives,
Hannah
Garfield & Abigail Pierce?
Also in the same cemetery there is buried
two Revolutionary War soldiers. In the next e-mail I will forward
their
stone's pictures, as I can only send 3 in one e-mail.
Any help you can give me on the above
Joseph
will be greatly appreciated. Thanks ever so much Dick
Garfield.
New Note 2021:
I’m a descendant of Jonathan Hagar married to Azubah Hopkins and
who is a grandson of Grace Bigelow and Joseph Hagar. They
immigrated to Canada 1789-1795.
While there is very little on Jonathan’s birth, immagration etc I
did find an immigration record in Canadian archives for a Joseph
Bigelow immigrated 1794.
Do you his lineage? I’m sure he is related to my
ancestors. They Bigelows, Hopkins, swsyzes, kings and
bemis families all came together about the same time.
I’m really trying to find out who Jonathan Hagar’s parents
actually are. He was born in 1765.
I can send you pic of the archive record for Joseph Bigelow if you
want it.
Thanks, Alecia Hagar-Vella < avella88@me.com >
