PHINEAS ABBE, son of Joshua and Mary (Ripley) Abbe, born November 22, 1746, in North Windham, Conn. ; died June 17, 1800.
Mr. Phineas Abbe Departed this Life 17th day of June on Tuesday in the afternoon at four o'clock in the 54th year of his age 1800. (Bible Record.)
He was a respected and prosperous farmer of Windham, took an active part in all matters of public
welfare, held various civil offices, including that of jailer. During the Revolution he had at one time some English prisoners who ornamented tlie wall of their room or cell with a fine large picture of their ship. It was later revealed that this was only to conceal efforts they were making to remove a portion of the wall and make their escape. When they finally succeeded in getting away, tliey left word to their jailer that they were about to sail soon.
At his death his property was inventoried at $9,919.40, with 325 acres of land. The inventory, taken October 12, 1801, is a most interesting document with its long enumeration of articles of furniture and wearing apparel, among which were chairs and tables of several kinds, six fiddle-back chairs, silver knee-buckles and plated shoe-buckles.
The property was distributed to the widow, Susannah, and children: Mary Taintor, Joshua, Lucy, Thomas, George, Charles, Moses, Lucius, Henry and Samuel. (Windham Probate Records, Vol.
