I reached your site and the Bigelow Society site and was much impressed.
I'm going to be spending days and days tracking down family members. Thanks.
I can send you some information on Folger A. Bigelow as soon as I dig
into my files and have a chance to xerox what I have. He was the
son of Daniel Folger Bigelow, the artist, and was, I think, an even better
artist than his father. Unfortunately, he died in a gun accident when he
was 24 and that was that. We have several of his paintings, including a
charming one of what we think was his house and dog, done when he was only
14.
Cheers,
Jo Tunstall
