Biography

Abigail Allyn was born 2 Feb 1725/26. She was the first child of Robert Allyn and Abigail Avery of Groton, Connecticut.

She married Nehemiah Williams of Stonington on April 29th, 1747.

Note: It is likely that their first child was Nehemiah Williams, born 26 Sep 1749, who is currently profiled as a son of Jeremiah Williams and Abigail Mathewson, which is a matter pending resolution. If it turns out that he should be attached to these parents instead, then this profile should be edited accordingly, at which time this paragraph may be deleted.

They had six children during the timeframe through August 1760. These produced no known marriage or issue:

• Christopher Williams, b. 5 Jul 1751; died in the West Indies
• Eunice Williams, b. 25 Jul 1753; d. 29 Mar 1754
• Daniel Williams, b. 6 Apr 1758

Abigail (Allyn) Williams died in 1767 at the age of 41.
