Dear Rod:
An email correspondent of mine sent me the attached
picture of Charles Nolton Bigelow's family. He is
#16C43.73. She thought it might be one in my line. He
is not. The notation on her email said:
Studio photo
Location:Cass City, Tuscola Co., Michigan, USA
Date: ca 1895
Attached to: . Sarah Parker (1819-1910)
.Sarah Ann Foster (1849 -)
.Charles Nolton Bigelow (1862 - 1939)
The Photo that was previously posted here is actually Nolton 7 Bigelow
...................see
below
The lovely photo on this page is not of Charles Nolton Bigelow
who married
Mary Maybee. It is Nolton Bigelow 1848-1924, son of Edmund
James Bigelow
and Eleanor Butler. This Nolton married Sarah Ann Foster
(1849-1928),
daughter of Samuel Foster and Sarah Parker. Sarah Parker's
sister Letitia
Parker married another Nolton Bigelow (1815-1864), son of Eleizer
Bigelow
and Lydia Spencer.
Nolton (1848) and Charles Nolton (1862) were first cousins.
On the Tuscola County web page you will find digitised images of
some of
the
newspapers and there are some interesting items on the Bigelow
family who
lived in that area. They owned a hardware store in Cass City
for many
years.
I am a Parker descendant and would be interested in any more
information
on
this family.
