Notes - I have surfed & surfed the web trying to find concrete proof to nail down who the parents of Abigail Phillips really were. There is a lot of conflicting info. Some seem to contend that Nicholas Phillips of Weymouth (1611=1672) was the father, and that he may even have married twice. I've seen a death date of 1649 for Elizabeth Jewson. What seems to rule out this Nicholas marrying Hannah Salter (who died in 1696) is that his will does not mention a wife at all. The other issue I had was with Elizabeth being the mother of this Abigail. She would have been at least 48 if not 50 when she gave birth to her. I know it has happened, but really! The attached article seems to shine a light in a different direction. That there were in fact two Nicholas Phillips, one of Weymouth, & the other of Boston, a shopkeeper & victualler. This article states that the Nicholas of Boston was really the father of this Abigail & that he married Salter. Another attached article by a descendant states, "Our grandfather Deacon Nicholas Phillips must be distinguished from Nicholas Phillips of Boston who dies March 15, 1669/70." The two Nicholas theory fits & makes more sense to me so that's what I'm going with...
