John H. Abbott In his native county he found a matrimonial alliance with Miss Ellen Shoemaker, who was born in Columbia County, Pa., in November, 1827. Her parents, however, were natives of New Jersey, but spent their last years in Pennsylvania. Andrew Shoemaker, the father, carried on a public inn for many years and was quite a prominent character in the community where he resided. In the family were three sons and three daughters.
Mrs. Abbott spent the days of her maidenhood under the parental roof until she gave her hand in marriage to John H. Abbott. Seven children grace their union, the eldest of whom, Amzy, wedded Martha W. Miller and now resides in Nachusa; Elizabeth is the wife of Samuel Becktleheimer, a lumber dealer, residing in Polien, Adams County, Neb.; Robert R. follows the occupation of farming and resides at home; William wedded Ida Shoemaker and they reside in Nachusa Township: Martha is the wife of Myron Trivelpeace and their home is in Frontier County, Neb.; Charles is a dealer in lumber and coal in Ayers, Neb.; and Mary, at home, completes the family. The parents are both members of the Methodist Church and are active workers in the Master's vineyard. For many years Mr. Abbott has been a stalwart supporter of the Republican party and does all in his power to promote its growth and insure its success. He is a well-informed man. Both on political questions and otherwise, and is recognized as one of the leading citizens of the community. To general farming and stock raising Mr. Abbott devotes his energies, his home being in Nachusa Township, where he located March 28, 1864.
