John A. 7 BIGELOW

16314.45      John A. 7 BIGELOW, son of  Ira 6  ( Ezra 5 , David 4, Lt. John 3, Joshua 2, John 1)  and Rachel (ALLEN) BIGELOW, was born at Colchester, New London, CT in 1793 or 1794 (61 years at death). We only have limited data on him and his family at this time. From a book: History of Henry County, IL, we learn that he married a Roseanna Mary McCollum and that they had "8 or 9" children. He died on 12 February 1855 at LeRoy, Genesee, NY and is buried there.
