Abiah Strickland
F, #7354
Family: Josiah Mead (b. 9 October 1761, d. 5 July 1829)
Biography
| Marriage | about July 1814 | Josiah Mead and Abiah Strickland were married about July 1814 in Saratoga County, New York, Abiah had been married previously, to Eldad Garnsey. On Findagrave, Eldad's death date is given as 12 Apr 1819, and the entry reads "Note: Husband of Abiah Garnsey; Info from C. Durkee's 1878 report. Stone badly weathered, partly buried." I wonder if the year could have been misread, because Abiah is already a widow in guardianship and property documents in the summer of 1814.
If the inscription was hard to read in 1878, 1814 could look like 1819.
By September of 1814, Abiah had remarried, to Josiah Mead. She had eight children by Eldad Garnsey.1 |
