Frank
Vining 10 Bigelow, son of Sullivan Lathrop (etc).
Frank
said his branch of the family went up to the state of Maine,
perhaps because his great great great grandfather James Bigelow had been up
there
with
a regiment of the Massachusetts Militia. James was a Major and
his
job was to intercept the British on their way down from Quebec to
attack
Fort Ticonderoga and then to NY. Unfortunately, the "old boy"
got
lost and climbed up what is now known
as Mount Bigelow in Maine to try to find out where the British
were. He took up the rear so they could not retreat back to
Quebec and that was the end of the British Army of Invasion.
There is a small town nearby
Bigelow Mountain with a population of about 300 (?). Frank
said
he
had to turn back to find the place because he had gone through the
town
and didn't know it. One of his family, according to aunt "Carrie"
took
off
for California, and prospected for gold and struck it rich. Perhaps
he
"put
it in the Bigelow Bank of Ogden, Utah." Frank's grandmother
had
told
him of an "Aunt Bell" in Oakland CA. Some names listed in Mother
Lothrop
and Aunt Carrie's album were: Maxwell; Ford; Aretta Bell; Wing/
Foss;
Ladd;
Atwood; Chapman and Knowles."
His letter was to Laurel Bigelow Barklow, Rte. 2, Bx. 450, Ontario,
Oregon. Source:
Letter 6 Feb 1963 to Society. He became a member of the Sons
of
the American
Revolution in Washington, DC, in Connecticut #4231 through General
David
Humphrey's Branch. See DAR Vol 138 #137879.
