I recently attended the rededication of the recently restored Col Timothy Bigelow Monument in Worcester, Massachusetts on May 1, 2008.

I thought I would share these photos for your website and with the Bigelow Society. The Mayor of Worcester, MA declared May 1, 2008 Col. Timothy
Bigelow Day. During the dedication they referred to Col Timothy Bigelow as Worcester's first Veteran.

The photo of James J McKeon at the grave of Col Timothy Bigelow is of my father, son of Ruth Bigelow McKeon. Descendants of John Biglo and Mary
Warren.
Take care,
