Notes

Probate

There is not a will. The probate record includes an allowance for the widow Rebecca. The entire property including the family home was sold at auction to settle the estate.

Residence

In 1860, Rebecca was living with her son John and his wife and their four children.

Residence

In the 1870 Census, Rebecca was living with her daughter Martha Sturdy and her two children (and a William Sturdy who seems of an age to be Martha's father-in-law, although it turns out this is her husband who was 20 years older than her).

Residence

In the 1880 US Census, she was living with her son William Otis Abbott and his wife and children. Her daughter Martha had died in 1871.

Birth
