(Much of the data on the above 9 families of Abel 6 was collected
by
a descendant of Abel's son, Levi. LaVerne Brown, of Detroit
Conservatory
of Music, was so impressed by tales of his family's pioneering
days
that
he spent his spare time interviewing and researching. In the
1930's, he
distributed a mimeographed booklet to all of his relatives, in
which he
also related their ancestry on several lines. These manuscripts
are
still
extant around the family and it is from them that we have
collected
dates,
corroborating them from tombstones, county records, etc. since
Brown's
book, written strictly for the family, had no proof-of-date, so
necessary
to the genealogist. It is regrettable that LaVerne Brown left few
places
of death among his records).

Hello Rod:
I recently stumbled across the Bigelow Society site and was
absolutely
overwhelmed by the amount of information there. I must
compliment
you on
the wonderful work you're doing in managing this mass of material.
My great-great-great grandmother was Eliza Ann Bigelow, second
daughter
of
Abel and Sarah Clark Bigelow. In looking over the
information
on Eliza, I
see some errors that would be well to correct. (Her son
Richard,
for
instance, is shown as "Rachel" and her second husband's surname is
shown as
"Marble" when it was actually Markle.) There are a couple of
other errors,
as well as several additions that I can offer. Is it
possible
to make
these changes and, if so, how do I go about it?
I realize that you must get a huge amount of mail along these
lines,
so I
will wait patiently to hear from you.
Also by snail mail: 2 sons shown being born 2 months apart?, but
the
births of Byron Lord and Buchanan Alexander are probably
incorrect.
Tryphena's
1900 census says she was the mother of 14 children with 10 living.
Page
in Vol II shows 13. Believe Galbraith and "Franky" were 2 separate
children
who died in infancy.
