Lawrence—Another of the grantors in the joint deed was Zachariah Lawrence. He was, according to Dr. Bond, s. of Enoch and Ruth (Whitney) Lawrence and b. July 16, 1683. His heirship must have been in the right of his w., who was Abigail. Fifty years ago Dr. Bond wrote of Zachariah that he m., about 1707, Abigail, a gr.-dau. of Dea. James Parker of Groton. (Cap. Parker was also a deacon.). If anything more definite has since been learned the writer does not know of it. If about the same age as her husband, the mysterious Abigail may, as far as age goes, have been an unrecorded dau. of one of Cap. Parker’s sons. But studying the visible evidence it seems very improbable. If this conclusion be accepted we can but assume that she was a dau. of either Mrs. Elizabeth Gerry or Mrs. Anna Blood. Abigail’s chn. were: Zachariah, Ruth, Jeremiah, Josiah, Abigail, Elizabeth, Josiah, again, and Rachel. These names tell nothing of value. The first three are of Lawrence origin; Josiah was in honor of Cap. Josiah Parker(2) [James(1)] then markedly prominent, and why the name of Rachel appears is not certain. The sixth child, Elizabeth, may have been named for Elizabeth (Parker) Gerry, and the latter may have been either aunt or mo. to the mysterious Abigail; but it is not to be forgotten that Zachariah Lawrence himself had two aunts named Elizabeth. The name is no clew. Where shall we place Abigail? Was she the dau. of Elizabeth Gerry or Anna Blood or one of Cap. Parker’s sons? An account of the family of Samuel and Elizabeth Gerry would be welcome.
