Daniel ⁷ BIGELOW

15331.14 Daniel ⁷ BIGELOW, son of Asahel ( Cornelius ⁵, Cornelius ⁴, Samuel ³, Samuel ², John ¹) and Martha (HALL) BIGELOW, was born at Broadalbin, Fulton, NY on 04 March 1795. Westborough, MA vital records state Daniel born 11 April 1793 Westborough being the home town of his father, so this birthdate in question. Daniel married Betsy Ferguson who was born 1798 NY state. One record states that both Daniel and Betsy died on 18 October 1874 at Genesee Falls, Wyoming, NY. This is possibly an error for her. Daniel did not list Betsy in his estate so possibly she died prior to him. Daniel had served in the War of 1812. Both are buried in Denton Corners Cemetery, Genesee Falls, NY.
