CFf. Abigail MALTBY, b. Mar. 6 (or 7) 1713-14 (Dan. 2, Wm. 1). Deacon Charles Foote in his "Maltby Genealogy" states of her: "She m. (1) John HALL of Cheshire, and (2) Ephraim PARISH of Cheshire, July 19, 1740."
It seems that Deacon Foote must have thought the records pertained to one Abigail Maltby, but it seems to the compiler that the records of these marriages concern two different Abigails.
Daniel (2) had a dau. Abigail, b. in 1714.
Samuel (2) had a dau. Abigail, b. in 1716.
Mr. Roswell Parish writes: "The Abigail who mar. Ephraim Parish was a daughter of Samuel and Elizabeth Maltby." According to Mr. Parish, she was not a widow of Hall, as she is recorded as "Abigail Maltbie."
Consequently one can only conjecture that Abigail, b. 1713/14, (dau. of Daniel (2)), mar. a John Hall. He was not, however, of Cheshire; more likely this Hall family was from Guilford, Conn., as a "Philomon Hall, "Guilford, b. Sept. 3, 1733, mar. at Branford May 6, 1756, Sarah Page.
Neither of these marriages are important, as it is evident there were no descendants of either the Hall or Parish marriages.
