Abigail Middleton

[Phoenix]

Abigail Middleton

Baptised 21 August 1715, Felbrigg, Norfolk, daughter of Thomas Middleton and Alice.

Parents had moved to Edgefield, Norfolk by 1726 when her brother Christopher was baptised.

Married 21 Jan 1737 Edgefield to John Knights

Had five children up to 1748 in Edgefield.

I don't have a burial date for Abigail. Possibly she lived to old age and I could differentiate between her burial and that of a granddaughter.

No will and no surviving gravestone in Waletr Dew's Monumental Inscriptions in the Hundred of Holt. Not an altogether reliable book, but the old churchyard was submerged under brambles, last time I saw it.
