    Notes 
    • CHR: RECORDS OF THE FIRST CHURCH AT DORCHESTER IN NEW ENGLAND (Boston, 1891), 176 (FHL #974.461 K2r). No parents names are listed in this entry. Nevertheless, it is highly probable that Abigail is the dau of William Pond. William Pond and his wife were admitted to the Dorchester church on 28 Feb 1641/2, which proves that William was married at the time Abigail was baptized (Ibid, 7). Abigail also fits well into this family chronologically. The only other Pond known to have had children in Dorchester during the period was Robert Pond, later of Milton where he died in 1662. Robert's widow married Nicholas Ellin on 3 Jul 1663 at Dorchester. Nicholas Ellin's will, 16 Nov 1667-29 May 1668, mentions his wife's daughters Martha and Mary, but not Abigail (Suffolk Co. Probate, misc docket, [o.s.] 6:20 [FHL #584128]).
      MAR: No mar rec found. Abigail married Ezra Clapp according to A. K.Teele, HISTORY OF MILTON (n.p., 1887), 560 (FHL #974.47/M4 H2t). However, a note attached to the chr entry of Sarah Pond (chr 6 Feb 1641/2) states that she (Sarah) later became the wife of Ezra Clapp. Since the given name of Ezra Clapp's wife is known to have been Abigail, it is believed that this note, added many years later, was attached to the wrong chr entry. Children of Ezra Clapp were born at Milton, 1667-87 (MILTON RECORDS, BIRTHS, MARRIAGES AND DEATHS, 1662-1843 [Boston, 1900], 14 [FHL #974.47/M4 V2m]).
      DEATH: Teele, HISTORY OF MILTON, 530. Not verified by Milton vital recs.
