    Thanks to the careful investigations of Waldo Lincoln, William E. Barton, John W. Wayland and Louis A. Warren, it may be said with assurance that the bride of 1770 was Abraham's only wife and that her first name was Bathsheba. Very probably her family name was Herring. She was two years older than her husband and long-survived him, dying in Kentucky in 1836 at the age of ninety-four.
