History at Rays Place


Bigham, Thomas, established himself in Watertown in the contracting and building business in 1890. That he has succeeded is evidenced by the fact that he is now the most extensive builder and most largely patronized of any in the city. He was born at Harrisburg, Lewis county, N. Y., April 22, 1854. Mr. Bigham has had many years' experience in his chosen line of business, having served several years in a door and sash factory at Copenhagen, prior to locating in Watertown. He employs from twenty-five to thirty workmen and has erected some of the finest residences and business blocks in the city. February 18, 1878, he married Elizabeth Toones of Harrisburg. N. Y. He is a prominent member of the Citizens' Club.
