   CHARLES H. BIGELOW, farmer and stock raiser, P. O. Findlay, was born on his
present farm, in Findlay Township, this county, June 5, 1854, son of Philip
Doddridge and Harriet H. (Frisbie) Bigelow, natives of Vermont, the former of
whom came to this county July 4, 1841, and sold goods for a time, but
subsequently engaged in farming, in which latter industry he accumulated nearly
300 acres of farm land and some fine town property in Findlay, Ohio. Philip D.
Bigelow was always known as a leader in his vocations as well as in his public
life. He served with credit in different local offices and upon the board of
appraisement of Findlay Township, this county, in 1859-60, subsequently becoming
a member of the State Board of Equalization. He was an exemplary member and
worthy official of the Presbyterian Church. In politics he was a stanch
Republican. He died August 13, 1868, leaving a handsome competence to his family
and an honored name among public and social circles, and this county may well
feel proud of his record. His widow is still living. The other surviving members
of his family are a daughter and two sons: Ella Jane, wife of George L. Cusac,
Esq., a merchant of Findlay, Ohio; Frank F., a farmer, married to Viola A.
Stephenson (they have three children: Clarence, Edna and Ethel), and Charles H.,
who is married to Flora May, daughter of H. M. Vance, Esq., of Findiay (they
have one son, Bernard). In politics Charles H. Bigelow is a Republican; his
father was also a stanch Republican.
