  • Notes 
    • Abigail Sawtell. 1698-1787. Daughter of Obadiah. Bora at Groton March 13, 1698. Married at Groton Jan. 24, 1716, Joseph Parker. Died at Pepperrell Feb. 9, 1787. The inscription on her tombstone at Groton reads:

      She left two hundred or upwards
      of children and grand-children.
      The sweet remembrance of Ye Just
      Shall flourish when she sleeps in dust.

      Upon her death, her grandson, Joshua Longley of Shirley, administered her estate.*

      * Joshua was son of William Longley, the progenitor of the Nova Scotia branch of this family, and was a man of note in the business and politics of Shirley. He married Bridget Melvin of Concord. Of him Chandler's History of Shirley remarks: " Of all who have borne the name of Longley in Shirley, Joshua (the tenth-born of William, the eldest son of the redeemed captive) was the most illustrious."
