Descendant note:
I am descended from the NJ Bigelow's and have been working on the
family
line, ellusive as it is. A cousin recently discovered some
records
which shed a little light on this line and conflicts somewhat with that
in the Bigelow volumes. From deed records in OH: Heirs of
Aaron
Bigelow: Mary, Jabez, Sarah, Catherine, Daniel, John, Jonathan, William,
described as all "brothers and sisters" to Aaron. Aaron, Jabez,
John,
Jonathan were also most probably the signers of the Petition in Morris
County with the same names listed, they would have been in their mid
twentys
to mid thirtys at the time of the signing. Aaron's widow is Hannah, the
record is not real clear, but indicates "widow Hannah", presumably
referring
to Aaron who the land records relate to. By 1817 Aaron, Daniel,
John
and Jonathan appeared to have died. From these records we also know
that
sister Mary Bigelow married Isaac Beach who was b. in 1742, Mary b. in
1748; sister Sarah Bigelow m.Samuel Cobb. Using Mary as a dob
guide,
her brothers and sisters dob's would be somewhere in the neighborhood
of
1735-60. The information was recently located by Bette Dickover
also
working on this line with me. The source: Butler County, OH
Land
Records, Vol 2:
1816-23, by Shirley Keller Mikesell, printed Heritage Books, Inc, pp
30-33, 52. As we progress on the line we will update you for
those
interested in the line. Any info on the NJ lines from your
readers
might help clear up muddled information. Particularily, info on the
parents
of Aaron, et al. It currently appears that they are descended
from
Jonathan 2 and Rebecca (Shepard) Bigelow, seeking
confirmation

I have BIGALOW'S from Hunterdon, NJ area and need some help!!!! William
b. 1807 in NJ very possibly son of William
who was son of John and Elizabeth circa 1730's. Information is very
confusing about the generations in the late 1700's. Any NJ descendants
out there? Anything appreciated.....Jim

From: Richard W. Flagg BigboyNJ1@aol.com
My name is Richard W. Flagg and I am a direct desendent of Thomas Flagg
and I have one cousin that is still married to a Biglow, so I guess we
have been tied together for over 370 years in America. I once gave my
cousin
Chester Bigelow in Mass a Bigelow line back as far as 300AD years. How
many Americans today go back to Thomas Flagg 1637?
My Grandfathers name was Joseph Bigelow and he was married to a lady
named Mary Higgins. They lived ostesibly in a town in SW Penna. called
Dunbar in Fayette County. My father Edward Charles Bigelow was born on
Jan.31st 1884. I have been seeking my fathers family for
many
yesrs with little success until I ran across this bulletin that raised
some hope that the Joseph Bigelow that might serve as a possible
connection
for my family. Can you supply the rest of
the inquiry. Thanking you for any assistance that you may be able to
render. Edward C Bigelow
