Generation: 1

  1. 1.  Burke Abigail was born on 04 Oct 1721 in Stow, Middlesex Co., MA.

    Notes:

    Abigail is most likely the daughter of Jonas Burke & Hannah Johnson of Stow. Although I can't prove the connection, following is the evidence:

    1. Stow and Concord are very close and I have found no other Abigail
    Burkes in the area.
    2. Abigail was b. Oct. 4 1721 so she would have been 22 when Aaron and
    Abigail married.
    3. Abigail and Aaron has a daughter Hepsibah who may have been named for
    Abigail's sister Hepsibeth (on the other had, they didn't name any of
    their children Jonas or Hannah).
    4. Abigail's grandfather Caleb Johnson was co-owner of the "Glover Farm"
    with a Thomas Brown, probably Aaron's grandfather

    Jonas Burke d. in 1730, so his admin dosn't help make the case.

    Notes:

    This George Brown is shown living next door to a Simeon Potter in McHenry. This could also be another Brown relative because the Browns and Potters in Penn Yan, Yates County, NY were intermarried. This could also be a coincidence, but the fact that they were from New York and settled in McHenry as did Benjamin B. Brown and wife, Anna Way Brown earlier in the mid-1830s from the same neighborhood in Yates county, NY.

    In the 1860 census, George and wife, Martha owned 100 acres in Algonquin township, McHenry Co, NY and was listed as a laborer. Daughter Ida was listed as Adah, then one years old. They moved to McHenry sometime between 1860-70.

    George married Pray Mary Louise about 1848 in Ny?. Mary was born about 1831 in Massachusetts. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
