Person talk:Abigail Mitchell (6)

edits of Birth date, place [1 May 2011]

I've added the alt birth date according to source cited. Is original birthdate a recalculation for Modern calendar? I've replaced Charlestown, Middlesex with Charlestown, Suffolk based on my understanding (possibly in error) that places in WR are cited according to current jurisdictional organization.

While the connection between the Abigail Mitchel born in Charlestown to Andrew and Abigail and the "Abigail Michel" whose marriage to Joseph Parker is recorded in Andover VR seems probable another source would be welcome. The notation in Andover VR is written "Abigail Michel [of Haverhill, int.]" indicating that her being from Haverhill is a fact from a different source. The marriage does not appear in Haverhill VR. If, indeed she was from Haverhill, then she seems the only plausible candidate. The only Mitchells that appear in Haverhill VR until at least 1730 are descendants of Andrew & Abigail Mitchell, and she would have been the only Abigail Mitchell, other than her mother in Haverhill in 1712. (again based only on Haverhill VR)
