Hello Rod,
My name is Sheila Bigelow Gagnon and I have enjoyed following the Bigelow Society.
Recently I found an entry that has me questioning my ancestory.  I'm hoping you can help me investigate the entry or lead me in the right direction.
 Orrin Ellis Bigelow
The entry states (My Great Grandfather), Orrin Ellis Bigelow, married Alice Wallis (or Alice Wells or Alice Wellis, I found the spelling in 3 different places) January 20, 1883 and had a son,  T Glen Alva, my uncle.  The date of birth is not listed.  Orrin later married Sally West on May 22, 1888.  All of our family records state that T Glen Alva Bigelow is the son of Sally West Bigelow and Orrin E. Bigelow.
