Person:Abigail Swift (1)

Abigail is buried in Parker Cemetery in Mansfield, CT.

NOTE: If this is the Abigail SWIFT from the Mayflower Families in Progress , "Francis Cooke of the Mayflower and His Descendants for Four Genera tions", 1987 then the succeeding lineage I have listed for her is cor rect. This came to me from Scott Hall with "m. 1st Isaac Hall (Azari ah's father) so she may have married a second time later in life as h er husband Isaac died at age 27 when Azariah was an infant.

From "Mayflower Families Through Five Generations, Vol. Twelve on Fra ncis Cooke", page 566: Abigail Swift (Thomas 4, Slizabeth Tomson3, Mary2 Cooke, Francis1) bo rn probably in Barrinton (now RI) about 1730, died in Mansfield C T 2 August 1803, "wife of Zachariah Parker, Jr." Abigail married (1) in Mansfield CT on 14 September 1750 Isaac H all born in Mansfield CT 30 December 1730, died probably in Mansfiel d CT 6 August 1757; son of Theophilus and Ruth Hall. Abigail married (2) in Mansfield CT on 21 August 1760 Zacharia h Parker, Jr., born in Weston 27 October 1732, son of Zachariah and R ebecca Parker. No birth record has been found for Abigail Swift. Evidence fo r her parentage is provided by a deed, dated 14 November 1785, wherei n Zachariah Parker of Mansfield CT and Abigail his wife quit their ri ght "...unto all the estate real and Personal whereof Experience Tiff any (sister of Rachel (Stockbridge) Swift) late of said Hanover Wido w Decesed died seized..." Children (Hall) and (Parker) are listed.
