From Illinois, they went briefly to Pleasant Prairie, Kenosha co, WI, then to Spring Prairie, Racine co, WI. On the 1850 census of Clinton county, IA, Timothy is found under the name of "Timothy Bigola". From 1851 to about 1863, they settled in Camanche township, Clinton co, IA and then moved into Colorado. He was a blacksmith by trade and died at Second Mace, Custer co, CO on 26 April 1891 and is buried at Beulah, Pueblo co, CO.

I noticed there was not a lot of information on my line of Bigelow's Timothy Bigelow married to Almira Lord and their descendants. I have some information that I would like to share. Is there someone to send it to? I am sending my check to join the Bigelow Society. I would like to try and make my records as complete as possible. Thank-you, Kimberly
