Have you tried to find Abigail’s father’s will? That might answer the question.

I took a quick look for Worcester County, MA probate. The probate records are at FamilySearch.

This page in Thomas Drury’s estate mentions Abigail Newton, dec’d, wife of Phineas Newton. It is in the second to last line on the page.

I found Phineas and Abigail Newton and sourced dob for several children; but Abigail's maiden name was not listed.  More research could help
