Ann Bigger, sister of Susannah (Bigger) Patman
My ancestor James WADDELL m. Ann BIGGER in Richmond VA in 1787, and they ended up living in Hanover Co VA by 1802 or so. The published marriage record shows her surname as BIGGEN; however, the surety for the marriage bond was given by William PATMAN, husband of Susannah BIGGER, and surely these were Ann's relatives.(Neither surname - Bigger nor Biggen - can be found much in Richmond.)
A couple of pretty good sources show that Susannah was the daughter of John Bigger and Elizabeth Cary.Is anyone else following children in this family?
James WADDELL and Ann BIGGER had about six children with them in the 1810 census in Hanover Co VA.However I know the names of only a few:Martha WADDELL, b. in 1804 who married Joseph TYREE;Susan WADDELL of Hanover Co who married a WEST, and John WADDELL who was on the Hanover Co tax lists next to his widowed mother Ann by about 1817.
