Don had included my line in his Bigelow genealogy, although my father's
name was incorrectly listed as Paul Parker,
instead of John Parker. And his mother is Geraldine
Stone not Geraldtne Stone. Are you now maintaining that genealogy?
If so, is it possible to make those corrections.
I have also taken the liberty of attaching my genealogy starting at Jerusha
Bigelow (1697 - ). There are a few notable descendants from Jerusha
Bigelow in this genealogy. 183 Daniel Wells, Jr. was a minor
robber baron in Milwaukee. 222. Capt. Franklin Van Valkenburgh
was the commander of the Arizona at Pear Harbor, and died with distinction
during the Japanese attack. My information about these ancestors comes
from the book - Norris DW, Feldmann HA: The Wells Family, The
Kramer-Krasselt Co.(Milwaukee, 1942).
I hope this information is of use to you.Tony .... J. Anthony
