Apparently there are 2 brides, and 2 marriages 2 months apart in different colonies. Then there may be 2 grooms of same name. As the one cited was born in NH, that may be a clue as to which marriage is his. Another marriage with same named bride and groom is listed 10 years later in NH.

I checked the estate file given for the Abigail Allen here on AmericanAncestors.org, and it does not refer to the Abigail of this profile:
Hannah Pratt spinster, John Bickford shoreman, and Arthur Jeffery cooper all of Salem 28 July 1760 were assigned administration on the estate of "Abigail Allen late of Salem spinster"

The death date should be removed.

Her death date is shown as before 1760, but having had a child in 1773. Something isn't right.

The proposed match of Jeremiah's two wives needs to be addressed. What is the proof of his wife's parents, or what connects the wife of Jeremiah to specific parents? Is she named in a parent's or siblings will, etc.?
