John French's sister, Elizabeth, married Israel Beardslee of Stratford. Their eldest daughter, Abiah, married Nathaniel Mallory, son of Daniel and Sarah (Lee) Mallory, of Stratford. Nathaniel and Abiah are the progenitors of all of the Mallorys of Mallorytown. They are buried In the cemetery at Mallorytown, apparently In one grave, having a tombstone inscribed

Nathaniel Mallory died March 8,1808 aged 56 year
also Abiah wife of the above who died March 15, 1828 aged 82 years

In 1936 Visa Huldah Mallory of Mallorytown stated that her great- grandmother was Abiah, wife of Nathaniel Mallory. Her father's genealogical record gives the name Abiah. Abiah (Beardslee) Mallory was undoubtedly a first cousin of Henry French, the Loyalist.
