Dear Mr. Bigelow,
I came across your website on the Bigelow family. I have an addition

This information was provided to me by the Knox County Genealogical
Society several years back. Hiram enlisted with his cousin, Charles
Huestis in the 102nd IL Infantry. Coldbrook was a small farming town
just over the Knox County line near Galesburg. I understand that Nathan
and Mary (Huestis) Drake are buried in Galesburg. I hope this will
help someone else in the future. Oh, by the way, Charles Huestis was
the brother to our ancestor, Frederick Dana Huestis.
