About Abiah Sanderson
http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=34276404
Birth: May 28, 1651 Watertown Middlesex County Massachusetts, USA Death: Sep. 13, 1723 Waltham Middlesex County Massachusetts, USA
Abiah was born in Watertown, Massachusetts, on May 28, 1651. She was the youngest daughter of Ensign Thomas Bartlett and his wife Hannah. On October 24, 1669, Abiah married Jonathan Sanderson in Cambridge. Jonathan and his bride moved to a farm called "Hassel's Farm" on the Watertown-Cambridge line, and lived there for 21 years. Abiah and Jonathan had eight children, all born in Cambridge. The youngest was born in Cambridge but baptised in Watertown, so the family must have moved to Watertown between May and July of 1689. In 1688, their tax of 8 shillings, 4 pence is the 17th highest tax in Cambridge, so Jonathan must have been prosperous and an owner of real estate, although there is no record of his owning or selling "Hassel's Farm".
The family moved to the area known as "Piety Corner" in Watertown, which would someday be set off as Waltham. Between 1689 and 1695, the farm was increased in size to 160 acres. Jonathan was very active in town politics, serving as constable, selectman and Representative to the "Great and General Court" from Watertown. In 1717 Abiah and Jonathan's son Jonathan was elected to replace Jonathan as selectman.
Abiah died in Waltham on September 13, 1723. Her grave is in the old or lower graveyard at Waltham, known as Grove Hill Cemetery.
