Documentation:
Family records,
copies of vital records,
census page copies,
copies of obituaries, etc.

Information about Abijah's first wife
came from the LDS website.  Mandana Mansfield only appears on the 1850
Federal Census for Brasher, St. Lawrence Co., NY as a 5 year old child.
She has not been found any other place.  The date, place and cause of
Phebe Ann Mansfield Kennison's death is unknown.  Her husband later
married her younger sister.  Sarah E. Mansfield must have divorced her
first husband but no record has been found.  Both husbands outlived her
and both died in 1912.
