[] [Brøderbund WFT Vol. 1, Ed. 1, Tree #5322, Date of Import: Jun 13, 1997] Abigail (or Abigael) CARPENTER was born in England in 1606. She married William CARPENTER (born in England 1605) approximately 1628. They had seven children, of which three were born in England: John b. 1628; William b.1631-32; and Joseph b.1633. In 1638, Abigail, along with her husband, father-in-law, four children and a servant, arrived in America at Weymouth, Mass, via BEVIS. After their arrival Abigail and William had four more children: Hannah b. 1640; twins Abiah andAbigail b. 1643; and Samuel, b.1644.
NOTE: Ship passenger documents show Abigail and William with four children arriving from England in 1638, as well as a 14 year old servant named Thomas Banshott. (That would make 8 children instead of seven...)

Abigail died in Rehoboth Mass on 22 February 1687 in Rehoboth, MA.
