Research

If Abraham was born about 1765, it may have been Abraham Shipton who was christened on 09 Nov 1763 in Andover, Hampshire, England. Father's Name: Willm Shipton Mother's Name: Mary Shipton.^[2]

This one appears to be too early to consider, and too distant: Abraham Shipton christened on 12 Nov 1756 in St. Cuthberts, Darlington, Durhamshire, England. Father's Name: Thomas Shipton.^[3]

And this one christened too late (although he may have been an older child when he was christened): Abraham Shipton christened Dec 1770 in Horsley, Gloucestershire, England. Father's Name: John Shipton Mother's Name: Alice.^[4]

Searches for the proposed birth of Abraham Shippen son of Abraham and Martha Shippen have been unsuccessful.
