Biography
John BIGELOW, oldest child of John 1 and Mary (WARREN) BIGELOW, was born in Watertown, Middlesex co, MA, on 27 Oct 1643. He early emigrated to Hartford, CT. He probably followed Deacon Richard BUTLER (who married Elizabeth Bigelow, possibly John's Aunt) and who first settled in Cambridge, MA, but became a follower of Rev. Thomas HOOKER, and emigrated with him to Connecticut; Butler was a deacon of the First Church at Hartford.
John died childless and left his estate to the children of Butler/Bigelow.
John BIGELOW jr married (1) 27 May 1675 at Concord, Sarah WHEATE. We have no record of her, and presume that she died childless. John jr then married (2) at unknown date, Rebecca OLMSTEAD, daughter of Nicholas OLMSTEAD and Sarah LOOMIS. She was sister to the three OLMSTEADS listed above, and therefore aunt to Jonathan BUTLER, to whom John BIGELOW jr deeded his property, or a portion thereof.
