    Notes:

    BIRTH: No birth rec found. Although there is no proof that Abigail is the dau of Isaac and Abigail Lawrence, this was the only Lawrence family found in Norwich church, vital, and land recs. It appears that Abigail was named after her mother. Moreover, Henry Walbridge, Abigail's father-in-law, owned land bordering the property of Isaac Lawrence in 1727. See deed from Henry Walbridge to the heirs of Henry Walbridge, Jr, 4 Oct 1727 (Norwich Deeds, 5:141 [FHL #005026]). Abigail is also referred to as a dau of Isaac and Abigail (Bellows) Lawrence in William Gedney Wallbridge, DESCENDANTS OF HENRY WALLBRIDGE (Litchfield, CT, 1898), 30 (FHL #982238 item 8). Abigail's date and place of birth are approximations based on known residence of family in Groton and chronological considerations.
