Over the past few days, several of you have contacted me about
the relationship of the Arthur Eugene Bigelow family to the Beemer
Family. Here is what I think I know:
Arthur Eugene Bigelow 17 Sept 1852-5 Aug 1932 married Frances M Beemer
Their children:
George Levi; 7 June 1882 - 10 Nov 1932 m.
Francis Benjamin
Charles Arthur; 2 June, 1885 - 9 Jan 1947 m.(1) Zillah A. Hanson
(2) Marian (Schwartz)
McCann
Allie (Sp?) A. 18 Aug 1886 - 5 Apr 1970(?)m.(1) Margaret McRae
m.(2) Mable Mann
Hosea Edwin; 8 Jan 1893 - 22 Oct. 1963 m.(1)
Lula Nye
m.(2) Leota Klish
Jose Ethel; 8 Jan 1893 - 12 Jan 1965
m.(1) Arthur Johnson
(2) Lyman McAuiffe
(3) Ernest Moeller (Sp?)
Hosea and Jose were twins, apparently
Charles Arthur + Zillah Hanson
(a)Arland Eugene; 17 Sept 1908 - 19 Feb.1967

2 children - Terry Bigelow and a sister.
Terry and Kay
live in Pleasant Lake Michigan
Arland Eugene + Louise McIlvaine
(a) Robert C. 4 March 1937 - m Jane
McNiell Holmes (25 Apr 1950
- )
No children
Arland Eugene + Molly
(a) Richard (Malone) Bigelow by adoption of Tuscon Az.
m Bea
(b) Charles,of Columbia SC. now deceased
m Nancy
(c) Jon Bigelow of Dallas Tx. m Laurie (Townsand)
Berry
They have two children from Laurie's
first marriage
Jennifer and Sara; both now married
Molly lives in Tuscon Az.
Most of this is from the unpublished work of Patricia (Mrs. E. L.)
Bigelow
formerly of Jonesville Michigan The work was sent to me in 1976
and
may
not be the most current information. Also, the information I
have
given
you was hand-written and I'm not sure of the 1970 date for Allie A.,
it
seems awfully late for a Bigelow male. The remainder of it is
personal
memory and records, such as they are. My father (A. E. Bigelow was
two
years younger than my mother (Louise M) so he was born in 1908 not
1918 as
Patricia Bigelow had it; I assume the date is otherwise correct.
You three should get to know each other since you are all
Beemer-connected:

Robert C. Bigelow
Rod,
Perhaps I spoke too soon. On looking at my data, I see that I have a
different birth date for Elizabeth Walker, than you have. My data came
from
Worcester Town records, and shows;
"Eliza, d. of John and Mary, Dec. 23 1792".
Given the popularity of the name Eliza/Elizabeth, I could be mistaken
in my
assumption that she is the one who m. Charles(6) Bigelow. The MA town
records
are all I have to go by.
My Walker family, John (Jr) and Mary (Willard) left the town of Worcester
c.
1800, and moved to Barre. John Walker died there in 1809, and is buried
in
the Adams Cemetery. Mary Willard Walker remarried Lt Job Dexter.
But, just for the record, John Jr's father was Capt John(2)Walker,
Loyalist,
and his father was Sgt William(1)Walker, who came with the Scotch-Irish
to
Boston, c. 1719.
As I have said, I have interesting stories of this family and would
like to
contact other descendants.
I was in the process of (finally) filling out Family Group Sheets on
my
Walker line, but I'd better hold on Elizabeth until I can definitely
identify
her.

Dear Mr. Bigelow,
Do you know how I might be able to locate Dr. Bigelow's book titled
"Self-Limited Diseases"?
Thank you,
