FORGE article, Vol.27, No.1, January 1998, page 14, Newspaper clipping submitted by Billie Bigelow Hayes, Montpelier, VT, dated 14 Apr 1915 published in Stowe VT newspaper--"I remember Addie, Annie and Susan, but never heard much about Dr. Edwin Bigelow.  I assume he never married either, so no grandchildren from all these children. I have a gold ring in the box, with Addie, Annie and susie's names on it, so think it's gold that Eliakim brought home from California.."
