Dear Mr. Bigelow,
In beginning research into my own family
history, starting
with a box passed on to me through my family, I come across this
web page
of yours. The name I was searching for was Mary Ann
Hanmer b.1786
d.1813.
My M.A.H. was married to Elisha Dodd b.1777
d.1856.
They had a son, Elisha Dodd, (III) Jr. b.1810 d.1866.
Mary Ann
(Hanmer) Dodd died the same year their daughter, Mary Ann Hanmer
Dodd (later
Shutts) b.1813 d.1878, was born. This Elisha Dodd later
married M.A.H.'s
sister, Clarrissa Hanmer in 1815. So this Elisha Dodd had
two children
with his first wife, M.A.H.D., and I have record of his having,
"among the
children of E.D. and Clarissa were" four boys; Albert Dodd
b.1818 d.
1844; Louis Dodd b. 1820 d.1845-lost at sea; Julius Dodd b.1823
d.1841; and
Edward Dodd b.1825 d.1851. There are many letters in
this box
between many of these people, and some compositions by Julius Dodd
during
1837 and 1840 while he was a student at Hartford Grammer School.
In looking at the dates, it may be possible
that your
Mary Bigelow/Elisha Dodd, were the parents to my Elisha Dodd
married to Mary
Ann Hanmer then later to Clarissa Hanmer. I would be
interested in
finding out, if you would be at all able to help with this.
My family history, at least in this box,
follows the
Elisha Dodd, Jr.'s lineage. He married Frances Bunce b.1814
d. 1888
in the year 1835. Elisha Dodd, Jr. would be my
Great-great-great grandfather
on my father's side.
Before I continue into any history you may not
need or
be interested in, as I am finding just how extensive this kind of
research
can be, I thought I would at least send you a little bit so you
can decide
if this, or anything more would be helpful in your own research.
This is just the beginning of all this for me,
and I
have yet to comprehend all of the information in this box that has
come my
way, so I may be a little slow at anything I attempt, however, I
am willing
to make the attempt.
I look forward to hearing from you...
Sincerely,
~Mrs. Timothy Barry
