Hello Rod,
My mom (Helen Lekki) has let me know about the Bigelow family genealogy,
that I guess is two volumes, from looking at the website. My grandmother
was Norma Mihlader (Bigelow was her maiden name) and so I am very interested
in this genealogy. Is it still available and if so how can I get a copy?
I think my mom has some updates that she would like to add to the genealogy
(at least to the copy she saw). Should she contact you to do that?
The Bigelow Society website is very interesting. I was glad to spend some
time reading the family history and would like to learn more.
Thanks,
John Lekki
