Bigelow, Howard [Entry not original to AGO] February 28, 2003, I received an email from Mike Pratt, bad__frog@tir.com, of Lansing, Michigan, with news of a possibly overlooked member of the 12th NY Volunteer Cavalry. The body of the message was as follows:

I have a distant relative that you do not have listed as serving with the 12th NY Cavalry. While I have no documentation myself of his having served, Ancestry.com shows a pension claim being filed by his father in his name and the local family history of Conway Twp. in Michigan also states he served and that he died 4 Dec 1864 of fever. The place I have listed is Newburn, SC, but I think it may possibly be Newberne, NC instead. His name was Howard Bigelow. Why he joined up in NY, when he lived in MI I don't know, other than this Bigelow family originally came from Batavia NY.

Additional information about Howard Bigelow can be found at http://www.livgenmi.com/1880townshipconwayb.htm and at http://bigelowsociety.com/rod7/lev79818.htm.

On June 2, 2003 I received a follow-up email from Mike after he had requested and received the pension application records for Bigelow. His email follows:

I had emailed you a few months ago regarding the omission of Howard Bigelow from the roster of the 12 NY Cavalry. Well, since then I have received the pension application filed by Howard's father Levi H. Bigelow. It turns out that Howard enlisted under the name of George Twimbly or Trimby. I see from your page that Howard served under that name in Company "D". Unfortunately the file makes no mention of why he enlisted under an alias.

See the entry for George Twimbly.
