Abigail Sheldon1

b. 15 March 1743/44, d. 7 March 1792
Family
ChartsDescendants of William Bolton of Reading, The Immigrant
Father*William Sheldon2
Mother*Abigail Gowing2
Birth*15 March 1743/44Abigail Sheldon was born on 15 March 1743/44 in Lynn, Essex County, Massachusetts Bay Province (New England).3,4 
Marriage*28 March 1765She married William Bolton Jr., son of William Bolton and Mary __?__, on 28 March 1765 by the Reverend Eliab Stone in Reading, Middlesex County, Massachusetts Bay Province (New England).1,5 
Relocation*circa 1767Abigail (Sheldon) and William Bolton Jr. moved circa 1767 to Shirley, Middlesex County, Massachusetts Bay Province (New England), where he had purchased part of the estate of Jonathan Moore, gentleman.6 
(Wife) Land TransferFrom a deed, it appears that William Bolton Jr. gave Thomas Sheldon, believed to have been his brother-in-law, a piece of land in Shirley, Middlesex County, Massachusetts Bay Province (New England), and promised to care for his mother, Abigail Gowing Sheldon, until her death, and to give her a Christian burial. This curious agreement was thwarted by William's early death.6 
(Wife) Death7 May 1780Abigail became a widow when William Bolton Jr. died on 7 May 1780.1,6 
Administration18 May 1780The first papers in the Administration of William Bolton Jr.'s estate, dated on 18 May 1780 and recorded at Middlesex County, Massachusetts (Continental Congress), describe him as late of Shirley, a yeoman and having died intestate. They appoint his widow, Abigail (Sheldon) Bolton, as Administrator and require that a full inventory of the estate be made. An itemized inventory was submitted to the court on 1 Jun 1780 and showed a total value of about 10,000 pounds. Abigail also submitted a list of expenses she had incurred since her husband's death, totalling about 1,700 pounds. Among the expenses were "keeping my aged mother" and "keeping my three children who are under seven years of age."7 
Estate17 April 1781The court approved the inventory and expenses submitted by William Bolton Jr.'s widow, Abigail (Sheldon) Bolton, on 17 April 1781 and determined that William's estate be distributed. Abigail, as the deceased's widow, was to receive "one full Third Part" of the total estate.7 
Marriage*She married Ezra Smith, son of Nathan Smith and Rebecca Bixby.8 
Death*7 March 1792She died on 7 March 1792 in Shirley, Middlesex County, Massachusetts, at age 47.3,9 
BurialShe may have been buried in Center Cemetery, Shirley. A gravestone in honor of her memory is there and reads: "In memory of Mrs. Abigail Smith the wife of Mr. Ezra Smith who died March 7 1790 in the 47 year of her age. Death is a debt to nature due, which she has paid and so must you". Because the year of death on the stone conflicts with the Vital Records of Massachusetts, additional research is needed and is being pursued.10,11
Administration*16 April 1793Her Administration was opened on 16 April 1793 in Middlesex County, Massachusetts, and on 20 Apr 1793, Jonas Page, Nathan Adams and Wallis Little were appointed to appraise the real estate she received as her dower after her husband, William Bolton Jr. died in 1780 and would, as a result of her death, be distributed to William and Abigail's children.7
