About Abiel Harrington
Abiel Parker, b. 1691, Groton, Middlesex, Massachusetts, d. 25 May 1770, Watertown, Middlesex, Massachusetts,
biography
From https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Parker-10804
Most genealogies show Abiel Parker as a child of Joshua Parker and Abigail Shattuck. Some leave her out. Between her parents' marriage 22 September 1690 and Joshua's death 5 May 1691 there were seven months during which a conception could have taken place. If conceived in September 1690, Abiel would have been born in June 1691; if conceived in April 1691, Abiel would have been born in December 1691. In either event, her birth would have occurred after her father's death. To prove Abiel was a daughter, she must have been born in 1691. Day-1904 09:27, 18 August 2015 (EDT)
One proof of the relationship is that Abiel (Parker) Herrington & Husband George Herrington were plaintiffs in a suit regarding Abiel's right to a one thirty-first grandchild's share of the lands of James Parker, her grandfather, since she was the daughter of Joshua Parker and his wife widow Abigail (Shattuck) Morse [1]
An abstract of the will of Captain James Parker, naming Abiel as the daughter of his deceased son Joshua, is below:
(Midd. X : 149-543) Probate of the Will of Capt James Parker late of Groton, Co. Midd., deced, admcon allowed to Josiah Parker son of the said deced, exor in the said will. 7 Aug 1700.
