The place of birth of John Abbe, the founder of the American Abbe and Abbey families, is unknown, but every indication points to one of the interior and central counties of England as the home of the ancestors of the emigrant. It is not improbable that he was connected with the Abbye family of Staverton, Northampton. The parish registers of Stoke Bruerne, Northampton, show that there were many marriages of Abbyes recorded there during the 16th and 17th centuries.

    Although this statement says bound for Virginia, it is a well-known fact that many of the early ships destined for Virginia landed many or all of their passengers at other ports, even in New England, and records of the name John Abbe begin in New England about that time. The above Jo: Abby does not appear in the records of Virginia, nor in the Head Rights for lower Norfolk from 1637 to 1666. The abbreviation Jo: sometimes stood for Joseph, but there are proven instances where it was used for John. The first reference to the name in the Salem records is on page 11, volume 1, in 1637, or, according to the old method of marking time, 2d of the 11th month, 1636.
