Ella A. Bigelow (May 21, 1849 – October 23, 1917) was an American author, historian, and clubwoman. Among her publications were Prize Quotations (Marlboro, 1887), Venice (Marlboro, 1890), Old Masters of Art (Buffalo, 1888), and Letters upon Greece (Marlboro, 1891). [1] Containing 124 watercolors commissioned by Bigelow, her Historical Reminiscences of the Early Times in Marlborough, Massachusetts (1910), is described in The Boston Globe (1999) as "the best source we have for Marlborough history before 1910".[2]
