About Abiah Claghorn
was born in 1634 in (prob.) Scituate, MA. She died on 21 Oct 1677 in Yarmouth, Barnstable, MA. (751) Some references has the month of death as Aug. "Mr. Claghorn's genealogy says Abia died 21 Aug 1677. This is an error because although the Plymouth Court Records are dated '21 of the 8th, 1677,' they used the Julian calendar which began with March, and the eighth month in today's Gregorian calendar would be October." (Bonnie Hubbard)
Claghorn Study has first name of Abigail; Judy Goldbaum has Abiah; Bonnie Hubbard has Abigaill but states that she was "familiarly known as Abia.". Last name also spelled Lumbard, Lombart; Bonnie Hubbard uses the last name of "Lumbert" and gives the following explanation:
"Most modern references to this family spell the name Lombard but the earliest settlers generally wrote Lumbert or Lumber (which is how they pronounced it). Other spellings included Lumbart, Lumbard, Lambard, and Lambert." (Bonnie Hubbard, Lumbert Chapter)
"Abia had been born about 1634. Plymouth Colony Records, p. 42, state: 'James Cleaguehorne and Abigaill Lumbert marryed the sixt of January, 1654.' Banks, p. 81, says that James Claghorn's time was sold to Bernard Lumbert some time before 1654. 'He retaliated on his master by taking his daughter Abiah to wife.' I have no idea why Banks phrased it like this. They moved to Yarmouth about 1662 and I have found nothing more about her until her death, although Banks says she had 'for some time been mentally afflicted.' This opinion may have derived from the fact that Abia took her own life. The story is told in the Plymouth Colony Court Records, p. 249. Her children, Elizabeth, age 19, and Robert, age 16, had found her in an upper room hanging from the collar beam. This was in October 1677. She was about 43 years old. The records do not even mention her own name - just 'wife of James Claghorne of Yarmouth.'" (Bonnie Hubbard, Lumbert Chapter)
