Information from Family Bible, printed in New Hampshire Family Records, Vol. 1 by William Copeley and also appears in Meredith, NH Annals and Genealogies.
There is some question to this family - though the birth dates seem appropriate, they do not add up exactly with the dates and age of death.
Names of children would also confirm this family, with Lydia being the name of Abigail's mother, and Jonathan and John Bickford names. There is also a deed of Lot 50 in Epsom, 1801 from John Bickford Sr and wife Phebe to John Bickford Jr. -Phebe may also tie in. Parentage of this Jonathan Bickford unknown.
Death dates from gravestones.
