| 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.
