Biography

Anderson (Great Migration Series) and others believe that although a parent's name was not listed with the baptism of Hannah, Sarah, Abigail and Hannah again, that Edward and Margaret are the main possibility to be her parents. Also that the last three daughters are 8-10 years older than their baptismal dates would indicate.

Abigail Gould^[1][2][3][4] born say 1650,^[1] was baptized in Hingham, Massachusetts, 21 Nov 1658.^[2][1]

Abigail married at Roxbury, Massachusetts, 10 March 1669 [/70?] to Thomas Lyon.^[3][1] "Edward Goulds Daughter married Mar. 14 1669."(p295)^[4]

She died in 1748 ^{[citation needed]}
