Descendent note:
Hi, I have been looking at all the information I can get my hands on
regarding Bigelow's for the past couple of
weeks. About 12 years ago or so Patricia Bigelow contacted my grandfather
(now deceased), and then my father, Gerald
Bigelow of Alma, Michigan for information about our family. My decendents
are, according to Patricia Bigelow:
Gerald Bigelow (10), William (9), William Augustus 8, Ebenezer
7, Elijah 6,
Noah 5, Cornelius 4, Samuel 3, Samuel 2, John 1. The only information
I can find on my grandfather, William (9) is his social security number and
birth and death dates. I have lots of names, dates and history from our branch
of the family if you would like it, including the names of William's(8)
fourteen children and many of their grandchildren since I grew up in the
same town with many of my second, third and fourth cousins. Also our family
now consists of several Bigelows of generation (13). If you already have
most of this information please let me know where I can find it.

Comments: I first came across your website a little over a year ago. My Father
and I have found it very informative. You
have done a great job. My Father has gotten very interested in finding
out more about his extended family. He has now found the grave of his greatgrandfather
Ebenezer Elias Bigelow(7). 15337.42. My family and I visited Bigelow Mountain
in Maine this summer. Also saw a Bigelow Hill in the same area. We have also
visited Bigelow, Missouri (very small village in northwest Missouri). Anyone
have any information on it? Keep up the good work.
