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.
