  • Notes 
    • NOT nee BARTLETT nor m Johnathan Sanderson (as reported by Torrey)
      Dates don’t match: Mother BARTLETT would have been too old (abt 50).
      Abiah Bartlett m Sanderson 1669; This Abiah m William abt 1678; about 9 yrs later.
      In New England Marriages Prior to 1700, Torrey incorrectly states (p306) that Abiah m1 William then m2 Jonathan. This is impossible. He does correctly confirm that her maiden name is NOT Bartlett.
      Abiah Bartlett (d 1723) died before Jonathan Sanderson (d 1735), so she could not have married again after he passed. Abiah Bartlett m Jonathon Sanderson 1669, 22 yrs before William was deceased. This means she would have been married to 2 men at this same time. While this is technically possible, I would like to know how she pulled it off. [2]
