Nothing is known of Abigail Clarke, daughter of Alice Martin and George Clarke (step father Richard Bishop; ), after her mother was executed for murdering her younger sister Martha Clarke. Abigail was about 7 at the time of her 4 year old sister's murder. It's possible she stayed in Plymouth and lived with her step-father, Richard Bishop for a while and was then taken in by someone in the community. It's possible she was buried at Burial Hill, but it can't be proven.
For the most complete and best researched information on the two sisters and everyone involved, go to alicemartinbishop.com. It is the only site that I'm aware of that sticks to facts and best estimates and doesn't misinform or exploit the tragedy.
