possible deed related to Richard’s estate – 354:264 – yes, includes all the siblings – Gilbert Barker and his wife Priscilla, John Twycross and his wife Abigail of Dresden, Maine, Martha French widow of Cabot, Vermont selling to Ezra Abbott – the Abigail is Abigail Cogswell who marries John A. Twycross born in 1816 so she must be a granddaughter – daughter of Abigail?? – but maybe she is a daughter of Martha and a first husband Samuel Twycross?? – that does not seem to work since she is Martha is having children with William French in 1805 – can’t yet figure this out – In his will, Gilbert describes Abigail Twycross as his niece – got it, Abigail Cogswell is daughter of Hannah Barker and Wade Cogswell; Cogswells in America, p 292 and p 74
