Comments:  I had no idea there was a Bigelow Society. My father was John Marion Bigelow born Sept 4, 1922 in Salt Lake City Utah.
His father was Moroni Marion Bigelow. It is wonderful to see there are so many Bigelow's all related to one another.

Howdy,
    New Bigelow to the society.  Tried to get to John Young Bigelow.
    New Guy Bigelow,
    aka Bob Bigelow
Just a few updates
        1)  It's IVING -not Irving.  No "R"  Its a common mistake.
        2)  Iving passed away at the ripe old age of 92 (22 April 1980) in San Jose, Santa Clara Co., California.
        3)  His wife Ida, my grandmother, died 8 January 1976 also in San Jose, Santa Clara Co., California.
        4)  Moroni has also passed away but I don't have information on that yet.
        5)  Aunt Eva, aka Evadna Blanch Bigelow, divorced Frank Aronade, and then married Floyd Theall Mc Kune 3 July 1942
              and later divorced him.  She is probably dead also but I haven't kept in touch with my cousin Ronny (Ronald) that much.

        Golly, I'm so excited!  My first contribution.  I'll have to read up on how to make an "official" contribution.
         It was nice meeting you this way, this time.

P.S.  John Young Bigelow is not buried in San Francisco.  No one is buried in San Francisco. 
Everyone is buried in the small town of Colma, San Mateo Co., CA which is adjacent to the
city and county of San Francisco and whose only industry is the funeral business.  That goes for Iving Young Bigelow
(affectionately known as IY) and Ida.  Being buried in Colma, that is.
