The Abraham of Pembroke/Hanover was born in Boston in 1717 to Nathaniel and Frances Joslin (see, for example, Source:Detroit Society for Genealogical Research. Detroit Society for Genealogical Research Magazine, Vol. 25, p. 19). This Abraham of Abington named his first (and only) son Joseph after his father.
