Notes


Pertinent text, p. 23: "18. JOHN3 ABBE, son of Samuel2 and Mary (Knowlton) Abbe, born in Salem Village, Mass., June 4, 1692; died in East Hartford, Conn., October 30, 1790. He was a resident of Hartford as early as 1710 or 1713. John Abbe, resident at Hartford, sold to his brother Ebenezer, land formerly belonging to their father, Samuel Abbe, of Windham, October 29, 1713. (Windham Deeds, Liber D, page 328.) March 12, 1718, he purchased from Benjamin Hills of Hartford, 8 acres on the 'east side of the Great River.' There were several John Abbes living at this period so that it is sometimes hard to tell which one is meant, but the following records seem to pertain to this one. March 3, 1731, he joined with several others in giving a deed to the Town of Hartford for a highway which was later known as Silver Lane and on which his house stood. (Hartford Deeds, Vols. 5, page 307, and 3, page 164.) John Abbe of East Hartford was one of the inhabitants of that town to protest against a tax in 1769; signed a paper with others regardingtheir desire to settle in what was known as 'Western town' in 1733; was a proprietor in the Western land and signed a Tolland petition. (Connecticut State Archives, State Library, Towns and Lands, IX, 278b, with his autograph, V, 238e, V, 23b, and VII, 13.) Deeds made by him were recorded in Hartford, 1736, 1738, 1748, 1754, 1759, 1765, and 1770. The most important of these is that of January 15, 1759 (Hartford Deeds, 13, page 37), by which he conveys land to his son Nehemiah Abbe of Hartford. The name is spelled in various ways on the early records, Abbe, Abby and Abbey, but the latter seems to have been in most frequent use among the later descendants of his family. "Married HANNAH ______. "Children: "57 John Abbe, jr., m. Ruth Goodwin. "58 Stephen Abbey, b. about 1727; m. Mary (or Marah) ________. "59 Eleazer Abbey, m. Mary _________ . "60 Nehemiah Abbey, m. Mabel Warren. "Naomi Abbey. "Sarah Abbey. These last two names are included in this list of children for the following reason. In a deed recorded in Hartford, Oct. 26, 1759 (Volume 9, page 559), John Abbe, junr., Solomon Hills and Sarah, his wife, and Naomi Abbe convey land in Hartford to George and John Buck of Wethersfield."
