About Abel Morley, Sr.

I am not happy with the evidence that this Abel Morley is the father of the Thomas Morley. Many (50 or so?) Internet entries affirm, so I am accepting it until someone puts forth a rebuttal. I am leaving it in, but I do not entirely like it.

Abel Morley, born at Westfield 18 Jan. 1689, died at Feeding Hills, now in the town of Agawam, 17 Jan. 1771. He married at Glastonbury, Conn., 9 Apr. 1719, Susannah Kilborn, who died at Feeding Hills 16 Feb. 1782, daughter of John and Susanna. He and his wife joined the Westfield Church, by letter from Glastonbury, 27 Dec. 1741, and they helped form the church at Feeding Hills in 1762.
