Rod, My name is Karl Atwood and my grandmother's maiden name is
Alice Ulissa Bigelow, daughter of William Henry Bigelow. And her
mother's name is Alice (Betts) Bigelow. I have attached three
pictures: 1. The Bigelow family on the old farm at Maple Landing,
Iowa, 2. Alice as a young woman and 3. Alice with her mother, Alice
(Betts) Bigelow. We have other pictures including some like
that of "William and Alice..." and "grandma Alice..." shown on your
website. There are a couple
of corrections that you can make to your website regarding my grandmother.
She was born 19 May 1876 in Iowa and died at the age of 86 at
St. Elizabeth's hospital in Yakima, Washington on 31 March 1963 (she did
not die 28 Oct 1957). She married Charles Clarke Atwood in Monona
County, Iowa on 8 July 1898. (She was not married
to Charles Hamilton.) Charles Clark Atwood was born on 16 October
1869 and he was the pastor of the Christian Church in Chester,
Nebraska. He died on 8 October 1918. They had one
son, Henry Smith Atwood, who is my father. My father was a medical
doctor in Yakima, Washington. My grandmother, Alice, had a second
husband, Edward Marian Harrison, and they were married in Whiting,
Iowa on 15 August 1923 or 1924 (year was not on marriage certificate).
He was a farmer until he died on 13 January 1938. After that, Alice
moved to Yakima to be near her son and grandchildren. In addition
to the sisters and brother mentioned, my grandmother also had a little
baby brother, Calvin Lee Bigelow who was born 18 September 1873 and
died 26 April 1874. (Based on an entry in her birthday book.) There
are other discrepencies which could be explored between what is listed
for birthdays and deaths on the website and what is in my grandmother's birthday
book. Her book shows that William Henry Bigelow died on 8 September
1911.
