She appears to be Mary Isobelle Libby who was married to Milton Dale Abbett. She was the granddaughter of my 3rd great grandfather. To far removed to be interested in the picture but thank you for mentioning.

The last memory I have of my Father was in 1983. I was 9 years old. His name is Ken "Skinny Kenny" Abbett. I know he went from Texas back to Indiana eventually. I know he spent some time in jail. And, I know he had friends who took him in when the weather wasn't good. I think he may have lived behind a bar/ restaurant. He has a brother named Frank. Oh, and he passed away on his birthday, 4/27/1997. Anybody with information, please reply...Thank you.

jimnerma — 2007-01-10 19:54:31Z

Hi JAJ and any GA Abbett’s researchers,

Your posting responding to one from Natalie about Peter J. Abbett is interesting.

I realize that Abbett and Abbott are interchanged frequently and I shouldn't attach too much importance on Peter J. Abbett's surname spelling. However "Abbett" was not the one most used.

My gg-grandfather was Littleton Berry Abbett, a physician, b. 10 August 1825 in GA and married to Sarah Caroline Land Jan. 1950. A few months later, he and his new bride were visiting his sister and her husband in Pike Co. GA, as reported on the 1850 Census for Pike Co. She was Elizabeth "Eliza" Abbett, b. ca 1819 and married to Joshua Callahan. Both families later migrated to Tallapoosa Co. AL.

Do you have the names of all of Peter's offspring? Elizabeth's d.o.b. seems to fit the marriage date, given by Natalie, as 1818.

A cousin, and descendant of Littleton Berry Abbett, did a very detailed history of his descendants, entitled, "The Abbett Family Report" in 1992 but all are stumped on the identity of his parents and other siblings, if any. Should there be any likelihood of a connection with your line, I will gladly share any portion of my database with you.

Again, thank you very much and especially your offer to share info.

My email address: jharriswATnetzero.com. (Change the “AT” in the address to “@”)

Emmett Monroe Abbett

KNorthup8848 — 2006-01-11 13:21:43Z

I'm interested in exchanging info with anyone researching Emmett Monroe Abbett who married Hattie Ruth Phillips. Hattie is a half sister of my g-grandmother Ollie Phillips. I have found Emmett & Hattie on the following census records:

1920 census Spring Twp., Butler Co., KS January 5&6, 1920
#17
E. M. Abbett, head, age 35, MO/KY/KY, farm labor
Hattie R., wife, age 20, MO/MO/MO
Milton T., son, age 4, MO/MO/MO

1930 census Precinct #4, Chavez Co., NM
Emmett M. Abbett, head, age 42, age at first marriage - 28, MO/KY/KY, laborer, general farm
Hattie R., wife, age 30, age at first marriage - 14, MO/MO/MO
Milton T., son, age 14, MO/MO/MO

Hattie was in Wichita KS in Feb 1945 when her mother died and listed as Mrs. E. M. Abbett. When she died in 1979 she was listed as Ruth King, with a surviving daughter Lois Abbot. I also have info that she married a man named Huenergardt. Would like to find out if I have everything correct and I have info on Hattie's family and ancestors. My email address is karinorthup@comcast.net

Re: more info

abbett476 — 2005-09-30 20:38:02Z

Sorry I don't have any more info on them. The information that I have was given to me by a person in Missouri. Her name was Mary Weisenborn.

2004-11-29 18:17:38Z

peter abbett is my ggggrandfather and walton is my gggrandfather. walton was born between 1826 and 1830 and the 1850 census shows brothers simeon, born 1832, and john,born 1834,and a sister Amanda, born 1839. walton and margaret adeline bunt were married july 6,1854. she was the daughter of edmund and eda bunt. they lived in south dekalb county near panola mountain and attended macedonia baptist church on panola road. {walton and adeline are buried there]. walton and ada, as she was supposedly called, had ten children:

elizabeth-1855
sarah-1856
dulcinea-1858
john-1860
walton d.-1865
frances-1867
luella-1870
emory sylvania and landrum[twins] august 19,1872
nicholas 1874
emory sylvania is my ggrandfather.
Walton died in november 1873. hope this helps.

Laura "Nettie" Abbett/Abbott gd/o Peter J. and Amanda Dillon?

2004-11-29 18:17:20Z

I was told my Nettie might be from the line of Peter J. Abbett and Amanda Dillon of Campbell County, GA. I figure her to be born between 1850 - 55. The census says she was born in GA. she married Adam Edgar Walker in Feb 1871 and settled in Etowah County AL. She had four children, Irene b 1872, Donald Q b 1874, my ancestor Samuel Henry b 1876/7 and Harry b 1878.
I have seen messages regarding Peter J. Abbett and his son Walton but I can't see to find the names of Walton's children to see if Laura A. "Nettie is among them. Also, did Peter J. have any other children than Walton? Thanks, Pam at Pamelamix@aol.com

I wrote a three page paper on walton and family in the mid eighties, after spending countless, but rewarding, hours in research and filed it in the state archives. That may be what you have. Some packets were given to family that included copies of Walton's correspondence and his taking the oath to the confederacy.Most of those copies were dated 1/29/85. Let me know if you learn more.Thanks

The parents of John Henry were Henry J. Abbett & Sarah M. Hoglan.

I have information about Abbett families in Bartholomew County, but I have not tied into the Henry J.Abbett family as yet. Any information that you have might help.
