Eldest child of Revolutionary War veteran Lt. Cyrus FAIRBANKS and his third wife, Abigail WYMAN, Abigail married Calvin PEABODY 22 March, 1804 in Lancaster, Worcester Co., MA. Mother of James Longley Peabody, John Amory Peabody, Mary Jenkins Peabody WHITMAN, Hannah Willard Peabody STURTEVANT, Clifford Callahan Peabody, Ellen Callahan Peabody Sturtevant, Eliphalet Hill Peabody and Sarah Hill Peabody SAYRE. Calvin Peabody preceded her in death in 1828 at the age of 46.

At some point after August, 1831 and after another very brief marriage to Emanuel HENIKA, 1752-1832), Abigail became the third wife of Revolutionary War veteran Levi Francisco (1757-1844.) He lies buried alongside his second wife, Charity CARPENTER (1759-1831), in Lord Cemetery, Town of Gorham, Ontario Co., NY. (His first wife was Sarah VAN DER COOK, 1759-c1785.)

In Levi's Last Will and Testament, Abigail was bequeathed her legal dower right, which was one third of her spouse's estate, "for her support and maintenance during her natural life" before it is to be otherwise divided among his other heirs.

Abigail lies buried as "Abagail (sic), wife of Levi Francisco", on the Peabody and Sayre lot in Pine Corners Cemetery. There has been much confusion relating to this burial as absolutely no reference to Abigail's previous Peabody or Henika marriages are made on her headstone.
