About Abiah Birdsey-Tryon (Hunnewell)

From The Tryon Family in America:

We find her first name spelled Abiall, Abial, and Biall. She was born in Middletown in 1683, and was a daughter of Elizabeth (Harris) Hunnewell, and granddaughter of Capt. Daniel Harris and his wife Mary (Welds) Harris. The name of Abiah's father was Birdsey. Her mother, after the death of her first husband, married John Hunnewell, and evidently Abiah adopted his name.
