• He was the son of Elisha Holly Jr. and Rebecca Bishop.
• Marriage*: Abraham married Mary Webb, daughter of John Webb and Mary Holmes, on 12 January 1758.³
• Residence*: As early as in 1765 Abraham Holly lived at Hunting Ridge, Stamford, Fairfield, Connecticut, based on a land record regarding the sale of a right of way to the town for construction of a highway to the Stanwich Meeting House.
• (Witness) Probate Record: Abraham Holly was listed in the probate record of Silas Holly on 6 July 1771 at Stamford Probate Court, Stamford, Fairfield, Connecticut. See Silas Holly for details.⁴
• (Witness) Probate Record: Abraham Holly was listed in the probate record of Lois Todd on 12 May 1772 at Stamford Probate Court, Stamford, Fairfield, Connecticut. See Lois Todd for details.⁴
• Census*: Abraham appeared on the census of 1790 at Hunting Ridge, Stamford, Fairfield, Connecticut, as 2 males over 16 (Elnathan & ?), 1 male under 16 (Jared), 5 females (wife Mary, Rebecca, Elizabeth, Lucy Ann, Abby, Chloe). Neighbors Billy Scofield, Stephen Holly (2/3/3) (son), Stephen Holly Jr. (1/1/3)(nephew), Jonathan, Jesse, Joseph & Noah Waring, Jocob & William White, Ebenezer, Nathaniel & Benjamin Webb.⁵
• Church Affiliation*: As of 25 May 1796, Abraham was affiliated with Stanwich Congregational Church, Greenwich, Fairfield, Connecticut,"Record of such as were found in Covenant and Full Communion when Platt Buffett commenced his pastorship over the Church in Stanwich:" and on the first page, "Abraham Holly, and wife of Abraham Holly." They are both marked with # after their names, meaning "Those marked thus # died in good standing in the church."⁶
• Census: Abraham appeared on the census of 1800 at Hunting Ridge, Stamford, Fairfield County, Connecticut, as one male 10-15 years (?), one male 16-25 (possibly Jared, who did not marry until 1802 and would be 25 here), one male 45 and up (Abraham, Sr., age 67). Two females ages 16-25 (Abby and Chloe) and two females 45 and up: Mary Webb and ?⁷
• Census: Abraham appeared on the census of 1810 at Hunting Ridge, Stamford, Fairfield County, Connecticut, as as 1 male 10-15 years old, 2 males 16 - 25, and 2 males 45 and up. One female age 10-15, one female 16-25, and 2 females 45 and up. I don't know who the male 10-15 is, although Abraham could have had another son, say, 1795, and there is an Abraham of that age in Montgomery and Greene Counties I should investigate. The males 16-25 could be Alanson (age 21) and David a few years younger. David married about 1811. The two older males could be Abraham Sr and Jr., ages 77 and 52. Don't know who the female 10-15 is, could there be another sister after Sarah? Female 16-25 could be Sarah, although she was born in 1783 and would have been 27. However, there is some evidence that she was unmarried in 1831, so she could have been living at home, and two years off is not uncommon. The two older women would be Mary Webb Holly, age 70, and probably Bethia Ambler Holly, age 53. Living next door is Jas. Holly, Abraham, Jr's oldest son. Living near them are the familiar Hunting Ridge family and neighbors, Billy Scofield, John Ingersoll, John Sherwood, Joel Waring, the Todds, etc.⁸
