Looking for ancestors of Abigail Beers. As stated, I believe her origins to be in the Danbury Beers family, but that could be wrong. Her brother is said to be Jabez Beers, who married a daughter of Jonathan Weeks, and was killed with Abigail's husband in the Wyoming Massacre of 3 Jul 1778.
Any information would be appreciated. Perhaps someone with access to Mary Regan's Beers Genealogy would be kind enough to do a lookup...
