Notes

It is possible that she might have been born in 1632 or early 1633, perhaps after her father left for Plymouth in 1632 but her mother stayed in Leyden. More likely she would have been born c1626 in Plymouth after her mother migrated there. Her mother was still in Leyden as of June 1634, when she was present at hear sister's wedding, so if Abigail was born after her mother's arrival in Plymouth, it could not have been any earlier than 1635.
