Abijah married twice; Lucena J. Lacy and Eliza Dennis. He had eight children with his first wife, and six with the second.
"We have just learned of the death of Mr. Abijah B. Church of Romulus, from a fit of apoplexy, on Monday last, aged 79 years and six days. The deceased on that morning, went with a team to his woods for a load of wood, and the horses returning to the stable without him raised a suspicion that some accident had occurred, and they repaired to the woods and there found him dead. The deceased came to this country from Connecticut about fifty years since and was one of the oldest and most esteemed citizens of Romulus." (Oct. 25, 1876, the Waterloo Observer)
