About Joseph Bigelow

Biography
Joseph Bigelow of Hartford, Connecticut, son of Jonathan and Mary (Olcott) Bigelow, was born about 1690, and married May 21, 1713, Sarah Spencer, and settled in Hartford [Connecticut] where he died about 1731. On the death of his father he was appointed executor (with his step-mother) of the estate, and became a large land owner in Hartford. May 1, 1722 we find that Joseph Bigelow, son of Jonathan Bigelow, appeared at the Probate Court and appealed from the decision of the Court in allowing Jonathan Butler to hold the property of John Bigelow, but was overruled on teh appeal. His will dated Sept 4, 1731, mentions wife Sarah; sons Joseph, Elisha and Josiah; daughters Sarah, Mary and Abigail and kinsman Jona. WIlliams, probably his brother-in-law. TO his daughters he gave eighty pounds each and named his wife Sarah and son Joseph as executors. They were duly appointed as such Feb 19, 1732. The children of Joseph [seven are named]. [1]
