    • e-mail Ross Kinney 3 Mar 2000 "As for the mother of Abigail Canfield, the correct answer in Elizabeth Merwin. The original information I got on the Canfields was from "The History of Thomas Canfield" by F.A. Canfield, 1897. It has her mother as Elizabeth Willoughby. Many of the genealogies out there have the same thing. However, an article from The New England Historical and Genealogial Register, "The Camfield Husband of Sarah Willoughby and the Wife of Samuel Canfield of Norwalk , Conn" by Andrew MacEwen, 1964, gives very convincing evidence that it was indeed Merwin and not Willoughby."
