| Notes |
- BIRTH: No birth rec found. No proof has been found that Abia is Bernard's daughter. However, Abia cannot fit into any other Lumbert family in the colony. The only other Lumbert in the colony old enough to have had Abia was Thomas, father of Bernard. But he mentions no dau of this name in his will. See the will of Thomas Lumbert of Barnstable, 23 Mar 1662, proved 7 Mar 1664, Plymouth Colony Probate, 2:2:24-26 (FHL #567794). Abia was almost certainly born before 19 Apr 1635, when Bernard Lumbert joined Rev. John Lothrop's church at Scituate. Otherwise she would have been baptized in Lothrop's church, as her younger siblings were ("Scituate and Barnstable Church Records," NEHGR, 9[1855]:279-282 [FHL #974 B2ne]). Her birth in Dorchester is suggested by the residence of the family there from 1630-1634. Bernard Lumbert was made a freeman of the Massachusetts Colony on 1 Apr 1634 with twelve others, most of whom were Dorchestermen. The rest were from Boston and Roxbury (Nathaniel B. Shurtleff, ed, RECORDS OF THE GOVERNOR AND COMPANY OF THE MASSACHUSETTS BAY, 5 vols. [Boston, 1853-54], 1:368 [FHL #974.4 N2s]). Also see Robert S. Wakefield, "The Lombard Family of Barnstable, Mass.," TAG, 52(1976):136-39 (FHL #973 D25aga).
MAR: "Barnstable, Mass. Vital Records," MAYFLOWER DESCENDANT, 4(1902):121 (FHL #974.4 D25md).
DEATH: See inquest upon the death of the wife of James Claghorne of Yarmouth, 1 Nov 1677 (Nathaniel B. Shurtleff and David Pulsifer, eds, RECORDS OF THE COLONY OF NEW PLYMOUTH, 12 vols. [Boston, 1855-61], 5:249-50 (FHL #974.4 N2n]). Abia apparently hung herself.
