Both born on same month, day. 1 year difference is due to the pre-1750 convention of the year changing over in March. So she was born in 1743 (old date convention) and 1744 (date changed Jan 1st) Location matches, name of father matches. BUT mother's do not match, nor do dates for father. There could quite easily be two Israel's in Rowley MA, but I do doubt that they both had daughters named Abigail born on same day. Perhaps a duplicate profile got attached to the wrong Israel?
