If Abigail were the wife of Zachariah Wells and they were married ca 1770,
then she would not be the daughter listed as Abigail Osborne in James
Osborne's will (1822). She would have been Abigail Wells.

Kenneth has Elizabeth Osborne as wife of Zachariah. I have this Elizabeth,
dau. of James, married to a Mr. Brock. I have another Elizabeth, sister to
James, in my database, but I don't have a spouse for her.
