Biography

Nathan Abbott was the son of Asa Abbott and Elisabeth Abbot. He was born 18 November 1756 in Andover, Massachusetts.[1] On 22 May 1785, he married Margaret "Peggy" Wilson in Danvers, Massachusetts. [2] Nathan and Peggy had, at least, eight children. Nathan passed away in Billerica, Massachusetts on 10 January 1840.[3] Peggy and Nathan are buried In North Cemetery in Billerica.[4]

Children of Nathan Abbott and Peggy Wilson

  • Elizabeth (Wilson) Frederick, A.K.A. Russell (1786-1883) first married Edward H. Russell (abt 1780-bef Jun 1826), then George Frederick (abt Jan 1765-1844)
  • Martha Wilson (1788-1875) married Leonard Cushing (1796-1867)
  • Nathan Wilson (1790-1864)
  • Lydia Wilson (1792-1873) married Nathaniel Stevenson
  • Sophronia Wilson (1795-1879) married Asa Bushby (1792-1862)
  • Judith Wilson (1797-1870) married Levi Felton (1799-1829)
  • Asenath Wilson (1801-1859) unmarried
  • Mary Wilson (1804/1806-1876) married Henry Bushby (1805-1883)

Research Notes

  • Nathan, and not Nathaniel, is listed as the father for Elizabeth Abbot in both Massachusetts death records for Elizabeth. He also appears in Danvers, Massachusetts Vital Records before 1850 for some of the children listed.[5]


  • Margaret/t and Nathan both died in Billerica. The age marked on his gravestone would lead one to logical conclude he could be the son of Asa and Elizabeth Abbot. That would be a closer match with respect to his age at death in Billerica; however, does conflict with other sources.
