I need help in trying to untangle my Abbott/Chandler lines. It seems that I have my George Abbott's mixed up

Question

In my Ancestry tree, I have George Abbott (Abbott-102) as my 10th great-grandfather, but here on WikiTree, it has George Abbot (Abbott-89) as my 10 great-grandfather.  Do I indeed have my George Abbott's mixed up?  Is there someone/someplace I can go to help me figure this out?  My George Abbott married Hannah Chandler (at least that is what I thought)  12 Dec 1646 in Roxbury, Massachusetts, British Colonial America.

Answer 1

There is a wiki space that has some information on distinguishing the no fewer than four George Abbot/Abbott of early New England. https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:George_Abbotts_of_New_England

It is indeed the George Abbott-102 who married Hannah Chandler. That family ultimately settled in Andover. So, you may not be off track at all.

George Abbott-89 settled in Rowley.

You may also contact me privately if you need more detailed information on your Abbott line.

Answer 2

Hi Marcia, My name is LeRoy Abbott, wiki, Abbott-6047, Patricia Abbott is a distant cousin, She is correct about George Abbott, of Andover. He is also my g-grandfather #10 direct blood ancestor. There has been a bit of confusion about the early George Abbotts'. It will probably never be completely resolved. There were even sons of some of them ,also named George, which adds to the confusion. Enjoy the ride. LeRoy K. Abbott Jr.
