Descendant note:
I just ran across your site(s) on the Internet. I had no idea that
the Bigelow family had such a large following! Like most serious Bigelow
genealogists, I have also seen G.B.Howe's book, as well as the other very
large one (I'm sorry, I forgot the author, but you probably know the book).
In it is listed one of my ancestors, which is how I came to know of my long
and illustrious heritage. Apparently, however, no one knows of this
connection but me! Here is my ancestry:
James Maurice Baker (b.11-24-1978), son of Barry James Baker (b.7-8-1944),
son of
Maurice Cleo Baker & Marian Ruth Quick (1921-1996), daughter of
Howard Francis Quick & Gladys Florence Post, daughter of
Will Joel Post & Effie Mae Curtis, daughter of
Lyman Thompson Curtis & Florence Adelaide 8 Bigelow,
only daughter of Alva 7 Bigelow & Sophia Chatfield.
Both of these last two had moved from NY. Alva was a son of
Jairus 6 Bigelow ( Bond
5 , Elisha 4, Isaac 3, Samuel
2, John1) Biglo
& Mary Warren).
I know that this is not strictly BIGELOW genealogy, but I thought you may
like to know. I do not desire to join the Bigelow Society at this
time (I am a student at Albion College at this time; coincidentally where
the society was founded, correct?), but I may in the future. Thank
you for your time, and thank you for your web page!
