Looking for information on Augustus Elisha Bigelow born about 1809 in Vermont. Children include Hattie b. 1851 and Louis
b. 1847. Married a widow Mrs. Julia Newbury Beckwith on 31 Mar 1867 in Providence, RI. In 1870 living in Fall River, MA
with wife Julia (my gr gr gr grandmother), children Hattie and Louis Bigelow, step daughters Adelaide and Clarissa Beckwith
and step grandson Louis H. Martin (my great grandfather).
More:
Julia was born about 1806 or 1808. She married Ira Lewis Beckwith about 1828 possibly in Dorchester. They had 5 children. Frances - the oldest daughter - died several months after giving birth. Her son Louis H. Martin was raised by his grandparents. About 2 years after Ira died, Julia married Augustus E. Bigelow 31 Mar 1867 in Providence, RI when both were about 55 years old. I notice you had Julia married to her step son which was probably the result of sloppy writing on my part. Sorry.
I notice that you had Augustus dying in Phillipston, MA on 16 June 1885. Do you know whether Julia is buried with him? She is conspicuously absent from our family plot Lot 78 - Grace Church Cemetery, Providence, RI.
