Bigelows, Howes, Parmenters, Rices, Taintors and Cashmans all came in through Boston in the 1600's. Grandma's father
was John Bigelow of the Northborough/Marlborough area, and he practiced architecture. Her mother was a Howe
(my great great grandfather was Horace Bigelow, an entrepaneur and social liberal who owned a shoe factory in
Worcester Ma. He instituted profit sharing in his company, built the White City amusement park in Worcester and later
donated it's electric generating plant to the city). Her first husband was a Murray (2 children, Anne and Margie) and her
second was Paul Parmenter (2 kids, Dan- my father- and John, in CA now). She and grandpa Paul were distant cousins,
the Bigelows and Parmenters having known each other since at least the 1750's if not longer. My father Dan Parmenter
married Kathleen Loughman (pron "Lockman"), the Loughmans being from MA (Cape Cod) and NY (the Bronx- my great
grandfather was a military man and moved a lot. He was high ranking officer in the Navy and a set a record for
the deepest sea dive in about 1913). I'm ashamed at the moment to say I can't remember much about the Bigelow line
beyond John Bigelow, although I do know family tales dating back to the French and Indian War.

I have ALL the family genealogy (up to date) on my computer. I have copied all the Bigelow files that Grandpa Bigelow and my Mom, Janice, had. I have done some research and am still recording stuff. As you can see, Horace Holly Bigelow was actually an Uncle of ours, as he was the brother of Arthur Julian Bigelow. James Franklin Bigelow, Arthur's son, was Grandpa Bigelow's father. I have lots, lots more information, including pictures, on all the branches and you are
welcome to it all!!

Dear Sir,

I am currently clearing up my mother's estate in Northboro, MA. Her father was John A Bigelow a lifelong resident of Marlboro, MA (aprox 1890-1970).

Both, my mother (Janice Bigelow Parmenter), and my grandfather were extremely active in areas of genealogy and history, esp. of the Bigelow family.

I have come across, among other things, approximately 100 unused copies of a booklet printed for the 1872 Bigelow Family Reunion and, I think, compiled by Gilman Howe. I also have found a panoramic picture of the attendees of that gathering.

Please let me know if you have any interest in acquiring these items, either through purchase or donation. I would like for them to come into appreciative hands.

Regards,

Daniel E Parmenter
