Individual Details

He is likely the Silas Abbott that died in 1856 In Chelmsford. He was single. He lived much of the time in the almshouse from 1829 until his death. He was in and out of the almshouse. The only issue is that the death record gives father's name as Nehemiah rather than Jeremiah, but there is no other Silas of the right age for whom there is a birth record.
