Description
The progenitor of the Missouri clan of the Bigger/Biggers family, William Bigger (b. ca. 1650), was of Scottish descent and came to Colonial America ca. 1671 settling in New Kent Co., Va. He was married to Martha Woodward, daughter of William Woodward. They had only one child, William II (b. 1680). Descendants in this book are mainly those of William Biggers (1776- 1842), son of David and Elizabeth Ferguson Bigger, who was born in Louisa Co., Va. He migrated to Kentucky at an early age and settled in Montgomery Co. He was married to Matilda Harrison (1792-1886) in 1807. She was born in Kentucky to Hiram and Sarah Richardson Harrison of Virginia. Family moved to Missouri in 1831. James Fagan (1744-1793), the immigrant ancestor, was born in Dublin, Ireland. He came to America in 1755. He married 1764 in Virginia, Elizabeth Grigsby (1747-1831), daughter of Moses and Katherine Branson Grigsby.
