Dear Rod:
I am so delighted to have found the family web
site. As I am a novice at genealogy, your site has been a terrific resource!
My line comes down through Andrew (6) Bigelow. His daughter, Mary Bigelow
(15133.27), marries John Norcross in 1818. Their daughter, Anne Mary
Norcross , marries Joab Woodward in 1858. Their daughter, Ida May Woodward
marries my great- grandfather, Edwin E. Johnson in 1886. The rest is
history!
As I am a member of a DAR chapter, I plan to do
a supplemental for Andrew, as he served in the Revolutionary War.
Would love to have copies of source documentation
(including title pages) for Andrew Bigelow and his first wife, Sarah Fawcett,
for their births, date of marriage, and their deaths. If you know
of anyone who has this information available, please let me know and I will
contact them. As I collect more on this line, I will send it to you
to be added to the Bigelow history.
Again, it is truly my pleasure to be completing
another branch of the family tree!
Sincerely,
Fran Pittman
