This is the back of the headstone of Nicholas Curtis ⁷ BIGELOW, in Peru cemetery, NY.

I was just going through the Cemetery book for the Peru Cemeteries. In the Peasleeville Cem (abt 3 mi from where I live)
is the Rev. J. B. Wescott /1811-1879, and his wife Welthia Bigelow (see almon7a.htm) 1818-1907. Also there is Cinderilla Emery, wf of Anson Wescott, d 8 Nov 1873@63. Cinderilla is part of my line. Is J. B. Anson's brother? Where does Welthia fit in?
In God's Acre Cem. is Julia Bigelow, 1844-1899, wife of Joseph B. Covell. Nettie J. Covell 18821882, and Gertude A, 1878-1892, their daughters.

Hi Rod,

Here's another item I've come across while going through your site. It concerns several of the children of Artis BIGELOW 15146.22.

You have Sabrina L. married to Wesley BURT in 1861; she died in 1873. You then have him marrying secondly her sister, Adelia in 1874. It is, according to the 1880 Census, her half sister, Adelaide (b.02 Dec 1850) who married him in 1874. The census lists the following:

Wesley BURTT Self M 42

Adelaide BURTT Wife M 29

George BURTT Son S 13
Cora BURTT Dau S 12

Subrina BURTT Dau S 5

Ida BURTT Dau S 4

Myrtie BURTT Dau S 1

This shows that his first two children, George and Cora, from his first marriage, along with three children of the second marriage.

All the best,

Michelle Moore

Comments: I have a Bigelow ancestor. One of my great grandmothers was Adelia Bigelow who died during or shortly after childbirth in 1863. She is buried in Clintonville, NY.
Her husband was Daniel Taylor and her children were John Wesley (1861)and Adelia (1863). I would appreciate any information about the family I could get.
She was my great grand mother and she died in 1863 as a consequence of childbirth of my great aunt Adelia Taylor (Pangborn) who died without issue in the mid 1930's and my grandfather John Wesley Taylor who died in Peru in 1929. Adelia Bigelow (Taylor) was buried in the Clintonville cemetery. I can get the exact details and will forward them to you. John Wesley's only child was Waldon D. Taylor (my father).

15146.22C Welthia "Wealthy" ⁸ Bigelow, was born at unknown date, probably in Jay, Essex co, NY; d 1928 Keeseville, NY; m Ambrose C. Calkins;

They had 3 children:
