James ⁸ BIGELOW

James ⁸ and James Riley ⁹ Bigelow
with Barbara Sharp-Bond an ancestor

15336.521 James ⁸ BIGELOW, son of Adam Chester ⁷ ( Cornelius ⁶ , Paul ⁵, Cornelius ⁴, Samuel ³, Samuel ², John¹) and Laurene (SMITH ) BIGELOW, was born at Chatham township, Argenteuil, Quebec on 13 September 1820. When he was about ten years of age, the family moved to Buckingham township, Papineau, Quebec which was then called Ottawa county. His first marriage was on 03 February 1845 to his first cousin, Mary Bigelow (15336.541). She was born on 18 May 1827 (Her brother's prayer book gives 27 May) and she died on 21 January 1883. James married (2) Eleanor Bigelow (15336.545) the sister of his first wife. She was born 10 September, 1835. James and Eleanor lived a few years at Grenville where her death is recorded as 28 August 1908. James died on 28 September 1914 at Glen Almond. Both are buried at St. John's church, Glen Almond. Of interest: after death of Eleanor, James lived with his youngest son. The 1861 census gives his age as 41. On censuses of 1871 and 1881, his age increased very rapidlly, so that, at death, he was allegedly 104 years of age.

From:Bigelowx@aol.com
Pat (Mrs. Edward) Bigelow, Fairbanks, Alaska sent me this information in a letter in 1983: That there was a James Stewart Sr holding land in 1831 in Buckingham Twp Quebec according to land records. She also said the township was formed in 1823 which made James Stewart Sr's family certainly a pioneer family. This information fits with the information I've gleaned off the internet from an old newspaper - site is mentioned below: Quote from The Buckingham Post "In 1826 James Smith and his sons James, William, Rodney and John, settled on lots Nos. 13, 14 and 15 in range 6. Robert Donnelly with his wife, two daughters and grandson, Robert Ackert, came also in the same year, settling on lot 14 in the 5th range. In the same year also a few other settlers came in, among whom were John Mar, James Stewart, John Cameron, who all settled in the 5th range on lots 13, 20 and 16 respectively."
