    BIRTH: WATERTOWN RECORDS, 8 vols. (Watertown, MA, 1894-1939), 2:3:53 (FHL #974.44/W5 V28w). The birth is also recorded in Weston vital records with date of 11 Feb 1712, but this is incorrect, as Thomas Spring, Henry's father, died in 1710. The birth of Henry Bullard, Henry Spring's half brother, was also recorded on this date. It is likely that the two children were confused by the town clerk.

    Henry married Chadwick, Abigail on 17 May 1732 in Weston,Middlesex,MA. Abigail (daughter of Chadwick, Ebenezer and Grant, Abigail) was born on 7 May 1713 in Sudbury,Middlesex,MA; died after 6 Mar 1780 in Weston,Middlesex,MA(?). [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]


  4. 7.  Chadwick, Abigail was born on 7 May 1713 in Sudbury,Middlesex,MA (daughter of Chadwick, Ebenezer and Grant, Abigail); died after 6 Mar 1780 in Weston,Middlesex,MA(?).

    Notes:

    BIRTH: VITAL RECORDS OF SUDBURY (Boston, 1903), 131 (FHL #974.44/S1 V2n). Henry Bond contends that this Abigail Chadwick married Ebenezer Boynton, 7 Jun 1728, and that is was Abigail, dau of Charles Chadwick, who married Henry Spring (Henry Bond, GENEALOGIES OF THE EARLY SETTLERS OF WATERTOWN, 2nd edition [Boston, 1860], 151 [FHL #974.44 D2b]). However, the estate files of Ebenezer Chadwick prove that it was his widow Abigail, not his dau, who married Boynton (Middlesex Co. Probate Files, 1st series, #4100 [FHL #386081]). Furthermore, Weston church membership lists show that Abigail Chadwick was admitted to the church on 13 Feb 1731/2, when she is called an unmarried dau of Ebenezer Chadwick, deceased. In 1744 another list was compiled of "the Members of the Church in Weston which are now living, & not dismiss'd or remov'd to other Churches, according to the Order in which they stand in the other Book." In 1744 the Abigail Chadwick admitted in 1732 is called "Abigail Chadwick now Spring." Abigail, dau of Charles Chadwick, was admitted to the Weston church in 1728. In 1744 she is listed as "remov'd" with no indication that she was married (Record Book of the First Parish of Weston, 1709-1743 [FHL #892235]). Hence, it is clear that it was Ebenezer Chadwick's dau Abigail who married Henry Spring.

    DEATH: No death rec found. Weston town recs refer to Abigail as a widow on 6 Mar 1780. No further mention (TOWN OF WESTON, RECORDS OF THE FIRST PRECINCT, 1746-1754 AND OF THE TOWN, 1754-1803 [Boston, 1893], 113, 279 [FHL #974.44/W9 N2t].

The entry calls the wife "Elizabeth Safford of Ipswich," but there is evidence that this was a clerical error for Rebecca Safford, Elizabeth's sister. Newbury vital records show that Nathan's wife was Rebecca as early as 1692 when their first child was born. Rebecca's age at death suggests a birth year consistent with Rebecca Safford's age. Finally, Elizabeth Safford married Alexander Lovell at Ipswich, 20 July 1697 (VITAL RECORDS OF IPSWICH, 3 vols. [Salem, MA, 1910-19], 2:384 (FHL #974.45/I2 V2c).

    MAR: VITAL RECORDS OF ROWLEY, 2 vols. (Salem, MA, 1928-31), 1:426 (FHL #974.45/R1 V28v). Record calls wife "Elizabeth Safford of Ipswich," but there is evidence that this was a clerical error for Rebecca Safford, Elizabeth's sister. Newbury vital records show that Nathan's wife was Rebecca as early as 1692 when their first child was born. Rebecca's age at death suggests a birth year consistent with Rebecca Safford's age. Finally, Elizabeth Safford married Alexander Lovell at Ipswich, 20 July 1697 (VITAL RECORDS OF IPSWICH, 2 vols. [Salem, MA, 1910], 2:384 [FHL #974.45/I2 V2c]).
