    Date of death, 11:2:1755, minus age at death, 13:11:69, equals date of birth, 28:2:1685, i.e., 28 Feb 1684/85. Abigail's mother was Mary (maiden name unknown). Genealogies of Mayflower Families, Vol. I, p. 396-7, says m. at Duxbury & Abigail's age at death is either 78 yrs. 1 mo., 16 days, or 78 yrs., 7 mo., 16 days; the stone being damaged. Page 397 says ch. #1-4 recorded at Plymouth & ch. #5, Elisha, b. 1718. It does not mention baptism. Name of ch. #2 is probably Eglath/Eglah, a Hebrew word meaning heifer (from my 1957 family Bible's concordance).
