| Marc:
|
| John Abbott was reported to be in Franklin County, Indiana, by as early as
| perhaps 1815.
|
| His first marriage was 1823 and ownership of property 1824 (in Franklin)
so
| I'm guessing he didn't arrive in Franklin until after 1820 (from Butler
| County, Ohio, where his family moved to from Pennsylvania about 1805).
|
| John's first wife was a Jane Carson. I think the Carsons were early
| inhabitants of Franklin, living just across the state line from Ohio.
|
| Any record of either family in the Gore book?
|
| Regards,
|
