Hello, Rod.....
I have finally found some of the information I've been seeking for
so long, on my Dad's side of the family. I'm very excited, because
I haven't known much about them, and now the door is opening a little bit.
I found a page on your site, which comes from Volume 11, page 269, census
1840-1880....Myron Taylor Bigelow. This must have been my Great Grandfather,
since my Grandfather was Elmer Gilbert Bigelow, his son.
I'd like to find out more information about my family...would you
tell me how I can go about doing that?
Thank you so much, I'm ever so grateful!
Carol Bigelow McSeveney
