Mr. Bigelow,
Had some earlier correspondence
about Roberts Connections in Schuyler falls and the markers @ the Turner-Roberts
House. This time a query regarding Alzina Bigelow, I know that your
site lists her as having married a Mr. Davis and I came across something
of interest on the1910 census in the town of Schuyler Falls. A Mr.
Harvey Davis age 64 is listed with his wife Mary, age 59 Residing
in the same household is his mother age 85 a widow, her name listed as
Alzina Roberts. This Harvey Davis checks out with the fact that she
married a Davis but I am trying to track down what Roberts she may have
married....in checking I have a listing for Nathan D. Roberts in Chateaugay
NY who married an Alzina with no surname listed but not sure if the ages
fit.
Nathan is the son of Alanson Roberts of Chateaugay and i'm just wondering
if Alzina may have had connections there....P. J. Roberts in Schuyler falls
would have been a cousin to Nathan.

More: 6 and 13 Sep 2002
I have found some
information pertaining to Jared Bigelows daughter Alzina and the identity
of her
second husband and I thought it would be of interest to you, also some
additional data on Amy's second
husband Stephen Caulkins. First this started with the 1910 census
data from Schuyler Falls where I found
Harvey Davis and his wife with an Alzina Roberts listed as Mother.
I went back and did a search through
all the Census data for Schuyler Falls from 1850 through 1910.
The results led to the following
information. Amy & Alzina living with their mother Sally
through 1860 in Schuyler Falls, both married
between 1860 & 1870. Amy appeared on the 1870 and 1880 Schuyler
Falls census with her second
husband Stephen Caulkins, He obviously was not killed in the
Civil War but may have been a casualty
(wounded). After 1860 thru 1910 Alzina is not in Schuyler Falls.
Checking through some notes from old
searches and material found the following.........Married
Peter Roberts of Plattsburgh and Alcina Davis of
Schuyler Falls on 15 Sep 1864 this is a listing from the Plattsburgh
Newspaper either from Microfilm or
from 10,000 vital records of Eastern NY. A check of the 1870
Plattsburgh census Pg 32 show Peter Roberts listed as farmer with Wife
(I had written Almyra, writing was tough to decipher) Alzina and her Davis
children, all of the names and ages fit Peter had been on the 1860
census in Plattsburgh with Ethan
Roberts both listed as Blacksmiths. I have not yet finished checking
the 1880 Plattsburgh census material
but obviouly IF Peter is listed he will have died between 1880 and
1900
I have taken the liberty
of attaching some scans of the census (Did not do all) that I
felt could be of help to you. Have also referred this to some
Roberts descendants. Randy
and Bob this I believe ties in to the Davis connections you referred
to previously and for your info Jared
& Hiram Bigelow have markers in the Turner-Roberts cemetery in
Schuyler Falls. I found it interesting that
the Bigelow site referred to Amy's wedding to her first husband Hiram
French was performed by none
other than P.J. Roberts. Please feel free
to comment as still trying to follow through on material. I neglected
to mention that I had also looked at
the Peru census for 1840 (Prior to Schuyler Falls becoming a TWP in
1842)
searching for listings for Davis families two came to the fore,
one Gardner Davis the other a George
Davis. Gardner dies before the 1850 census and George is there
on at least two more looking at the
individuals and ages and this is only a guess my money would be on
Alzina married to a son of Gardner,
she may have even been in the 1840 household.
More from John:
Earlier in the week went to the library to check out the NYState Vital
Records index to check fro a death record for Peter Roberts, unfortunately
found no record; however found the following listing for Alzina Roberts,
Plattsburgh, died 12 Dec 1913 #56447.
John
1. Jared Bigelow had daughters Alzina and Amy. (I don't know your
Bigelow lineage: Alzina, Amy or ?.)
2. Alzina had two husbands: one a Davis (father of Harvey Davis)
& a second husband, Peter Roberts.
3. Alzina Roberts (b. abt. 1825) was shown as mother of Harvey
Davis (1910 Census for Schuyler Falls, NY) .
4. Ethan Allen Roberts had a son named Peter Roberts who was
born in about 1813.
5. The 1880 Census for Plattsburgh, NY shows a Peter Roberts
(b. abt. 1813) household with a wife named Alzina (b. 1825) who had children
with the last name Davis: Harvey Davis (abt. 1845), Mary, Jesse and
Elizabeth.
6. One can make the hypothesis that Alzina Bigelow's 2nd husband, Peter
Roberts, was the son of Ethan Allen Roberts and Sally Odler (or Odell).
In other words, the Roberts family appears to be in-laws of the Bigelow's.
Does that make sense to you?
My original message was focused on the ancestors of Sally Odler (or
Odell).
Have a happy holiday.
