    • Date is extrapolated from census data. Judy Barton says 28 Jun 1782 which fits more closely with the census data. 29 Jun 1790 is what's listed in the other sources. If she is the 1790 Abigail, then all the census data is wrong. I don't think there'd be a 10 year discrepancy there though in every census. If the 1782 date is right, then this Abigail is not the daughter of John Larry and Abigail Chase. She may be a later daughter of John and Betty (Kilborn) Larry or she may have been previously been married to a Lawry/Larry and the marriage to Truman Garrett may be hers and his 2nd marriage. This assumption would be based on age at marriage. One other consideration, she and Truman live next to the Bartons and Larrys in the 1850 census.
