  4.   There are two Abiel Richardsons, who both married, less than a year apart, wives named Sarah. Source:Vinton, John Adams. Richardson Memorial, p. 533, covers this Abiel, but manages to confuse the wives, apparently thinking the recording of the name "Sarah Boynton" was an error, not a different Abiel Richardson. An article in NEHGR, p. 100:128, sorts them out, largely based on participation of the other Abiel in deeds with family members.
