Descendant note:
     I am a descendant of Martha Spring 7 Bigelow, daughter of Isaac 6 Bigelow and Angeline Prentice.  Isaac Bigelow's parents were John 5 Bigelow and Lydia SpringMartha Spring 7 Bigelow married Henry Schellinger and both lived in Wisconsin.  They had a daughter Mary Ellen Schellinger, my great grandmother.  She married John Cobin Martin from Mains of Craig Hall, Kennethmont, Aberdeenshire, Scotland.  His family came from Scotland in 1852.  He was one of five brothers that were veterans of the Civil War.
     I really appreciate all of the information that you have on the Bigelows.  Being in Virginia does not allow me to research much from Massachusetts.  I find that this area has a lot for people from this area but is extremely limited regarding other states.
     What do you know of a Thomas Warren, settler of Jamestown, Virginia?  I understand that the Mayflower Richard Warren can not be officially researched to the John Warren Line?
     The Schellinger line goes back to the beginnings of New York state and has a "coat of arms" as well.
