David Bigelow (b. November 1836, Franklin, Brown, Ohio) is my
great
great grandfather. Father to my great grandmother Dianah Elmira Bigelow (Golden).
Had
been searching for the where-abouts of David since 2006 and have
found
him. My cousin Betty Minzey emailed you a few years back and told
you
what we knew in hopes of locating him. David could not be located
after
the birth of his youngest daughter Savannah in 1870. I was made
aware
of a family story of David serving in the Civil War, possible Sgt.
told
to me by my aunt Dianna. I looked for him and found him, the one
and
only David Bigelow of the age that I was looking for that had
served as
Sgt. in Ohio. I am not sure if he and Charlotte Harris had ever
married
officially, instead may have been a 'Common Law' marriage, I even
hired
a genealogist with no luck, as it is that a record of their union
cannot be found. Finally I found a pension index for a David
Bigelow
and found it was filed in Indiana. I then looked in Indiana and
found
him in Muncie. He had married a woman by the name of Rebecca Jane
Redding in 1872 and together they had 3 children (Elmer Bigelow b.
1874, Bertha Bigelow b. 1876, and Russell Bigelow b. 1879 All of
Muncie, Indiana). Death date for David Bigelow is December 9,
1901,
Muncie, Delaware, Indiana. I have included images of the pension
index
and his headstone. *smile* Mystery solved. I want to thank you so
much
for your website, without it so many of us would not know where to
begin. It's been so much help. Best Wishes, Colleen Golden

Hello,
My name is Don Shafer, 3015 Frampton Dr. Toledo Ohio 43614
Telephone 419 385 0475. Please post my query as many places
as
you can. David Bigelow Birth around 1836. Father
Jonathan
Bigelow, Mother
Polly Hines. In 1860 living with father and mother. In 1870
living
next to father. Alone. Locations of both is Auglaize Co. Ohio. I
believe
he was in the civil war. His father died in 1876. I
lost
him
in 1880C. According to death records he is supposed to be
the
father
of Juliet, Dianna and Dora Bigelow. The mother is Charlotte
Harris,
daughter of Jonathan and Elizabeth Bradford Harris. No birth
records
found and no marriage record for him and Charlotte. When Charlotte
did
get
married she was married under her maiden name. So you
see I
really have a problem.
Don

Hi Rod,
I would like to pass on some information on a son of Jonathon
Bigelow b 1809-wife Polly son David Bigelow (1835) who was
married
to Charlotte Harris(1836)
they had a Daughter Dianah Almira b 16 Oct 1864 and died 15 Feb
1935
She married Lewis Golden great grand parents of my husband.
Charlotte Harris in 1860: Logan, Auglaize, Ohio living with her
parents
and her marriage to David I do not have a date for but assume
after
1860.
on the 1870 census she is listed living with her Mother and
siblings,(her father died before the census and David Bigelow
is living with his parents on the 1870.) there is Juliet and
Dianah and Savanna Bigelow living with them, which after seeing
the
info posted on Martin it is confusing who Juliet and Savanna's
father
is. I think it was David but unsure.
Charlotte was either divorced or widowed from David Bigelow and
she
remarried John Fisher. The Dora that they list as a Bigelow
is a
Fisher that was
the daughter of Charlotte and John. Dora married Francis
Miller
in
1886.
I hope this helps clear up some of the confusion, but still adds
some
in another respects. I also have a family story to David
Bigelow being a Chief and Dianah Elmira (see pic
below), an indian princess
and then later David is said to serve in the civil war as a scout
possibly.
Have you any information that would help in learning the truth
about
this
family story?
sincerely Betty Minzey (minzey tree posted on ancestry)
thank
you for your time.
More from Betty Mimzey:

for
Dianah
Elmira Bigelow Golden, anc so on. Lewis and Dianah left Ohio
an
entered Oceana Co Mi abt 1915 lived in Hesperia and buried in
cemetery
there.
