Hello,
My name is Don Shafer, 3015 Frampton Dr. Toledo Ohio 43614
Telephone 419 385 0475. Please post my query as many places as
you can. David Bigelow Birth around 1836. Father Jonathan
Bigelow, Mother
Polly Hines. In 1860 living with father and mother. In 1870
living
next to father. Alone. Locations of both is Auglaize Co. Ohio. I
believe
he was in the civil war. His father died in 1876. I lost
him
in 1880C. According to death records he is supposed to be the
father
of Juliet, Dianna and Dora Bigelow. The mother is Charlotte
Harris,
daughter of Jonathan and Elizabeth Bradford Harris. No birth
records
found and no marriage record for him and Charlotte. When Charlotte did
get
married she was married under her maiden name. So you see I
really have a problem.

Hi Rod,
I would like to pass on some information on a son of Jonathon
Bigelow b 1809-wife Polly son David Bigelow (1835) who was married
to Charlotte Harris(1836)
they had a Daughter Dianah Almira b 16 Oct 1864 and died 15 Feb 1935
She married Lewis Golden great grand parents of my husband.
Charlotte Harris in 1860: Logan, Auglaize, Ohio living with her parents
and her marriage to David I do not have a date for but assume after
1860.
on the 1870 census she is listed living with her Mother and
siblings,(her father died before the census and David Bigelow
is living with his parents on the 1870.) there is Juliet and
Dianah and Savanna Bigelow living with them, which after seeing the
info posted on Martin it is confusing who Juliet and Savanna's father
is. I think it was David but unsure.
Charlotte was either divorced or widowed from David Bigelow and she
remarried John Fisher. The Dora that they list as a Bigelow is a
Fisher that was
the daughter of Charlotte and John. Dora married Francis Miller
in
1886.
I hope this helps clear up some of the confusion, but still adds some
in another respects. I also have a family story to David
Bigelow being a Chief and Dianah Elmira (see pic
below), an indian princess
and then later David is said to serve in the civil war as a scout
possibly.
Have you any information that would help in learning the truth about
this
family story?
sincerely Betty Minzey (minzey tree posted on ancestry) thank
you for your time.
