From the 1849 diary of her sister Betsey Williams -

"Can it be that Abigail is no more. dear sister hast thou forever left us. Hast thou gone to thine everlasting home.
My sister died Dec 13 - 1849. She left an infant son eight days old and a daughter 4 years last July 27 and a bereaved husband to mourn her loss besides numerous other relations. She seemed perfectly resigned to the will of God having no choice whether to live or die. She seemed to have her reason perfectly the last day of her life, altho she had appeared lost most of the time in her sickness previously. Her sickness was very distressing. The Drs called it the scarlet fever .....She died Thursday eve at 10 o'clock was buried Saturday."

Lived her entire life on Williams Hill in Uxbridge.
