Hi Rod,
Your site shows that this John BIGELOW was married two times and fathering children up to the year of 1865, however, your site shows that he died in 1844 in Marietta, Washington, Ohio.  I believe this is a typographical error and thought I would let you know.  I believe that you would want to know about something as significant as this.  All the best!

Rod,
        How are you.  My mother recently gave me a copy of our family tree
and I am very interested in the Bigelow portion of the family tree around
the time of the Revolutionary War.  Do you know of any Bigelows that fought
in that war.  If so is there anywhere I can find out more about them?  Any
help you can provide would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you very much.
Your distant relative, Drew Talone.
BTW-My mother's maiden name is Clarke.  Her mother's maiden name is Prager.
Isaac David Prager married Mary Bigelow in 1881.

Dear Rod:
Really enjoyed my visit to the Bigelow Family web page.
 I am the Registrar of my local DAR chapter.  We have a prospective member who is attempting to document her lineage
back to Humphrey Bigelow who served as a Private in the Revolutionary War.  Reference:  Massachusetts Soldiers and
Sailors in the War of the Revolution, Vol 2.
 
In reference to your data which reads,
15321.5C8     Mary Edgerton, b 13 Mar 1862; d_____1928 Wheeling; m 27 Oct 1881 Isaac David Prager, d 1940; at least 1
child.
According to the 1900 census (Clay District, Ohio Co., WV) [T623 Roll:  1768, page 152]:  Isaac D. (b Apr 1850) and Mary E.
( b Mar 1862) Prager were the parents of John E., b Aug 1882; Austin B., b June 1884; Andrew B., b Apr 1887; Elizabeth E, b
Feb 1890 and Jennie H., b Nov 1898.
Jennie is our prospective member's mother.
If you would like a copy of the census listing for your files, it is yours for the asking.
Thanks for all you do for those with Bigelow ancestors!

Mr. Bigelow, I am a descendant of Mary Edgerton Bigelow and have some information on her family out about five generations.
If you are interested I could forward some of it.
