Name	Chadwick, Abigail
Born	7 May 1713	Sudbury,Middlesex,MA
Gender	Female
Died	Aft 6 Mar 1780	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. MAR: TOWN OF WESTON, BIRTHS, DEATHS AND MARRIAGES (Boston, 1901), 31 (FHL #974.44/W9 V2p). Also see intentions of mar, 20 Feb 1731/2 (Ibid, 28). 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]. ~LDS ORDINANCES BEPS: IGI
