SUSAN BIGELOW m. WILLIAM RAND, BALDWINSVILLE, NY

I am searching for the parents of my g. g. grandmother, Susan Bigelow (middle initial may have been "E").According to OH census records, she was born in 1824, Baldwinsville, NY.

She married William R. Rand (son of Daniel Rand whose father was Daniel Rand of Harvard, MA).

William R. Rand's mother was Lois E. Tanner (daughter of William Tanner and Lois Johnson).

Children of William R. & Susan (Bigelow) Rand:

Alfred Thomas Rand, born March 12, 1844, Baldwinsville, NY (my g. grandfather)
Alvira Rand, born about 1846, Baldwinsville, NY
Otis B. Rand, born about 1849, Baldwinsville, NY

Later children, prob. born in OH: Alice Y. Rand, Ellen Rand, Willard "Willis" Rand and Fred G. Rand

This family moved to OH where, in 1850, they were living in the home of William's parents, Daniel & Lois (Tanner) Rand (according to the 1850 census of Vienna, Trumbull Co., OH, District 142).

Naturally, my first thought was that Susan Bigelow's father must have been Judge Otis Bigelow of Baldwinsville, NY.The fact that she named a son Otis served to bolster my theory.Unfortunately, there seems to be no record of her birth.

Any help will be tremendously appreciated!Many thanks in advance to anyone willing to offer suggestions or supply information.
