Abigail married Nathaniel Condict (of Peter, of Peter, of John the ancestor, FAG # 12179447). This is evidenced on the newer headstone, although the surname is misspelled as Condit.
Note: Their child, Abigail Condict Young (m. Abraham), has her headstone spelled correctly as Condict.

Abigail's famous father was Brigadier Gen. William Winds of George Washington's Continental Army of the Revolutionary War.
He is buried at Rockaway First Presbyterian Church Cemetery in Morris County,NJ. He was New Jersey Militia’s highest ranking officer,and is buried at behind the church on a small hill. He was a delegate from Morris County to the New Jersey Convention, which ratified the US Constitution in 1788. His daughter, Abigail, married Nathaniel Condict, whose brother Captain Ebenezer, fought in the Rev. War under Gen. Winds command.

Note the grave of Nathaniel is Condict, and the children should be Condict, but some of the memorials names them as Condit-- something often found on this site, likely due to the Condit indexed/authored genealogy books used as the only source, and written by later generations who changed their surname to Condit, dropping the second “C” something that not all later generations did, specifically the Peter 3rd generation lines who carry the ancestor John Condict (with the 2nd “c”) surname to this day.

Note: It is apparent the Condit genealogy books has a mistake as to Nathaniel's 2nd spouse, as it was Abigail Winds (Gen. William Winds), as per church records at First Presbyterian Church of Rockaway, Succasunna, NJ and headstones. Some of the other children were likely of Nathaniel Condict's first wife, Sarah Coe.
