I believe Samuel Bryant-4344 married Abigail Turner-28533 but I don't have pre-1700 certification to link them.

I haven't gone through pre-1700 certification, so am entering this as a comment. From the Scituate Vital Records, 1909: Joshua Bryant b. 6 Jan 1712/13, Scituate Vol I, p. 59: “[Bryant] Joshua, s. Sam[ue]ll and Abigail, Jan. 6, 1712-13.” Samuel Bryant baptised 29 Jul 1716, Scituate Vol I, p. 60: "[Bryant] Samuel, s. Sam[ue]ll and Abigail, bp. July 29, 1716." John Bryant baptised 21 Dec 1718 Vol I, p. 58: "John, s. Samuell and Abigail, bp. Dec. 21, 1718." Abigail Bryant baptised 21 Jul 1723 Vol I, p. 57: "BRYANT, Abigail, d.Samuel and Abigail, bp. July 21, 1723." Abigail Turner (proposed: [[Turner-28722|Abigail (Turner) Bryant (1690-)]]) married Samuel 14 Feb 1711/12 Vol II, p. 48: "[Bryant] Samuell and Abigail Turner, Feb.14, 1711-12."

Well done Stephen. Yes, that looks to be correct. You'll note that on Abigail's profile it has much of what you've posted above, but the husband has never been connected. I'll take care of it. You should work on your pre-1700 certification soon.

Bobbie, thank you!

However, I now see two Abigail Turners.  Perhaps I wasn't clear enough:

https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Turner-28533
That family group is a mess imported from an Ancestry tree, unfortunately. I've removed the dates and locations that make it appear to be the same woman.
They did have the same birth date, as I recall.  I might have assumed they were the same person.
The profile did have the same birth date and location, but the

mother was different. I find no evidence that Joanna Benton (and husband John Turner) had a daughter Abigail. The John Turner attached was a different man altogether.
