Biography

Abraham was born in 1690. He is the son of James Parker and Mary Parker. [1][2]

According to WHMA in the Boston Transcript[3], he is not found after the indian raid in which his parents were slain and his brother Phinehas captured. Given that the indians killed those who were too young and slow to keep up, it is likely that he died in the same raid or at some point before that.

Abraham disappears from view in the Indian raid which took his parents lives July 27, 1694. his siblings survived and there is no record of the people killed in that raid - it is assumed that Abraham died either in the raid or in captivity thereafter. Indians did not take young (under ~10) children as captives, so he was probably killed.
