Indiana?[edit]

An editor of the page for Michigan City, Indiana, insists that this Abijah Bigelow moved to Michigan City, Indiana, late in life and, presumably, was buried there. He lists a reference source of http://www.mclib.org/people.htm#abijah in support of this, and that source, for what it's worth, does suggest the move west. It is directly in conflict with the source listed in this article, namely, http://bioguide.congress.gov/scripts/biodisplay.pl?index=B000453 I wonder whether anyone knowledgeable about Abijah Bigelow could voice an opinion on the Michigan City website with respect to the reliability of the source cited there? Or, if that source is more reliable than the biographical dictionary source used here, could an edit be considered here? Many thanks. Xenophon777 (talk) 14:50, 4 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
