G'day Bonnie, Thank you for responding. Definitely Abygail daughter of
Samuel and Phebe. The baptised date is is useful too. I wonder why the 18th
Feb date has continued, do you think it is because of Hudson's History of
Lexington ? It would be interesting for the date to be accurately stated and
not continue to be incorrectly used. I wonder who has access to the original
record. Anyway Bonnie you seem to have resolved the query for me. Regards,
James.
