My grandmother is going to be 101 in April and remembers "Nick" Bigelow from North Wolcott. Her memory is untarnished and talks a lot about my g-g-grandfather,Charles Richards,and his best friend Nicholas Bigelow. On some of my g-g grandfather's CW pension papers, Mr. Bigelow went with him to various meetings about the pension and signed papers as a witness. I have gone up to the old homestead twice this past year and know approximately where the Bigelows lived. (On the lake) (I have a distant picture of their homestead in late 1800's-early 1900's) They both were in the the Civil War, different regiments. Often talked about the war, which the women and children were notable to share in. I believe this "Nick" may have named his oldest son after my g-g grandfather, one William Charles Bigelow. Be more than glad to share. I am from Horseheads, NY. My name is Frank Patterson. I have looked hard for the regiment that Mr.Bigelow served in and any picture of him. Grandma would get such a kick to see one if it were available.He will be in my book, if I ever get it done.It is basically about my g-g grandfather and my best friend who was killed in Vietnam on Mothers Day, May 12,1968.
I have an original picture,of which I am going to make a copy of the Nicolas Bigelow house on Lake Ontario. Distant shot, but shows what the area looked like close to a hundred years ago.I am really interested to see if any of your relatives have a picture of Nicholas Bigelow in order that I could show my Grandmother and possibly use in the book I am writing about g-g grandfather,Charles Richards.Grandma descibes them as "very,very good friends" spent a lot of time together.Described Nicholas as having a full gray beard, had some kind of growth that was distinguishing, etc. Remembers his father Charles Lewis B.

16324.2C121    corrected to 16324.2C122    Russell E. 10 Bigelow, was born 25 September 1917 Wilmington, DE. He married on 02 August 1942 Roberta May Gwaltney. She was born 12 June 1922 in Petersburg, VA. Roberta died 14 May 2002, in hospital , Newark, NY and was buried in North Wolcott Cemetery, NY. Russell died 15 October 1990 Westbury, Nassau co, NY, and buried North Wolcott cemetery, Wolcott, NY. He contributed much information about this family to the Bigelow Society before his death in 1990. I recently received from our Treasurer John C. Bigelow, a menu from Bigelow's Seafood. It appears that Russell E. is the Russ Bigelow who founded this restaurant in 1939. Westbury, where he died, is less than 10 miles from the Restaurant site.

Just happened to be browsing on the wonderful Bigelow website and noticed what I think is an error.   Reference this page;
Russell E (my dad) was born after my aunt Gladys.  It looks as if their ID nos. have been reversed.
This would impact the ID's of me, my brother, and three of my cousins as well as our offspring.
Hope this isn't too hard to fix.
As long as you're there, my mom, Roberta May GWALTNEY died 14 May 2002, in hospital , Newark, NY and was buried in North Wolcott Cemetery, NY,
Thank you.
Tom
