Biography
Abigail Mott, daughter of Adam Mott & Mary Lott, was born 3 May 1666 in Portsmouth, RI [1] (Note: Josephine Frost printed an incorrect birth date of 1660.)[2]
She married in Portsmouth, RI [3] to Benjamin Haviland, son of William Haviland & Hannah Hicks. [2]
Abigail's father and mother were step-siblings. [4]
Children of Benjamin and Abigail
- Adam [5] [6] born ca 1685.
- John. [5] [6] born ca 1688.
- Benjamin. [5] [6] born 1690.
- Abigail. [5] [6] born ca 1691.
- Bethia. [5] [6] born ca 1693.
- Elizabeth ? (See her notes. This is a guess due to a suspected error by Josephine Frost and is supported by age calculations not evidence. It is possible she was born directly after the 1698 New York Census in that same year.)

- Ebenezer [5] born 1702.

In order to repair this tree branch, I would first disconnect that New York father Adam Mott, curently:
http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Mott-270
I would then attach the correct father Adam Mott II as
http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Mott-142
And I am also going to set her as an Unmerged Match with a counterpart profile that is very similar, except with birth 1660 vs. 1666. That can then be merged after these family connection fixes are resolved.
