Subject: Absalom Biggs My name is Steve Campbell. I am working on my Biggs family genealogy. I am looking for any information on ABSALOM BIGGS, born May 21, 1766. He is listed on the 1790 census as living in Stephentown, NY. He had brothers,TIMOTHY BIGGS,(born March 13, 1749) and SMITH BIGGS and perhaps other siblings unknown. Absalom Biggs died in 1815 in I believe Warren, Herkimer Co, Ny. He served in the war of 1812 and served at Sackets Harbor where he contracted a disease and soon died after he returned home in 1815. Timothy married LUCY BAKER March 7, 1763. After his brother Timothy died, Absalom married Timothy's widow, LUCY BAKER-BIGGS in 1790. LUCY BAKER, was a sister of William Baker's father.
