Disputed Origins

Mary Abbott (if that was her maiden name) was probably not a daughter of George Abbott (c1635-1689), since she was probably born about 1610-1615. However, it is very possible that they were brother and sister.Especially since George Abbott and Mary Weed apparently had a daughter Mary born in 1667. : Torrey's original manuscript concludes that Henry's wife is unknown,and discusses Mary Abbott, Mary Wheeler, and one other (illegible) aspossible wives of Henry's grandson Henry (he settled on Mary Wheeler in the manuscript, and she is called "wife of Henry Jackson" in her father's will). Other researchers have clung to Mary Abbott, partly because in Torrey's published work he went back to the wife of [grandson] Henry Jackson ( -1713, Stratfield) as "Mary (Abbott?), dau. Geor; ca 1680-90? Stamford CT/ Stratford, CT". The abbott book says George Abbott (advanced asthe father of the Mary above) came from England and was one of the first settlers of Norwalk, CT, a proprietor, his name appearing in the records as early as 1653. His will, made 1689, was recorded 11 Mar. 1690. The name of his first wife, who was probably the mother of his children, is not known. [Others have claimed she was Mary Weed.] His last wife was the widow Johanna Williams, who left heirs James, William, Elizabeth and Sarah, when she died in 1682. The children of George are John, Jonathan, Dorothy Rook, Pricilla Clason, Mary Jackson, George 9b. c. 1669), and Daniel (b. c. 1672). The husbands of the daughters were not named. But the approximate birthdatesof George and Daniel, as given by Abbot, assuming them to be in line with the rest of the family, would preclude Mary from being the motherof Henry 91) Jackson's children, since the oldest was born in about 1640 However, other researchers report that the passenger list of the "Hopewell" from the Port of London, bound for New England in April 1635included a Marie Abbott and a Jno. Abbott, both aged 16. Their identity is unknown.<ref>Source: #S546 Page: 11 June 1999</ref>
