Some ancestry researchers have her middle name as Clarissa, and some as Caroline. I am more inclined to believe her middle name was Clarissa, as researchers have mistakenly associated Abigail C. Stone with Caroline Herrick who was Lucius's 1st wife.
Abigail is the daughter of Henry Gates Stone (1793-1896) and Abigail Knapp (1797-1836). Her mother died in Essex, New York shortly after Abigail was born. Her father died in Le Claire, Iowa and is buried in this same cemetery.
1850 Census (District 4, Scott, Iowa) Name = Abigail C. Stone- Birth year =1836 - Birth state = New York
1860 Census (Le Claire, Scott, Iowa) Name = Abigail C. Collins - Birth year = 1832 - Birth state = New York

1900 Census (Le Claire, Scott, Iowa) Name = Abigail C. Collins -Birth year = July 1836 - Birth state = New York
On all censuses, Abigail lists the state she was born in as New York.
