     I have been working or my family tree for a few years now. I just got on the internet and in doing some searching I came across the Bigelow web page. I have a Wilkerson in my past, but I'm not sure if it fits with the one in yours . He would be a great uncle. I also have a Holmes. She would be my  great grandmother. Elizabeth b. 1 Jun 1835--d 27 Feb 1906. She and her husband were both born in England. I have a homemade computer printout of my tree and could send you a copy if you like. I also a a chart of some Gargraves back in the 1400/1500 I could also sent if you have a interest.
