- BIRTH
10 May 1892, Bartholomew County, Indiana, Birth Index (unnamed son of Jam
es & Ida Mitchell Abbett)
CENSUS
1900 IN Bartholomew County, Columbus Township, page 22A: Earl A. Abbet
t, born May 1892, in household of Thomas & Eliza Noland, listed as a neph
ew (Eliza Vickers Noland was the half-sister to Earl's mother, Ida May Mit
chell Abbett).
1910 IN Jennings County, Union Township, page 5 B: Earl A. Abbett in hous
hold of John M. & Elizabeth Price, listed as "brother-in-law" to John.
MARRIAGE
I have notes that state Earl Abbett married Nellie May Pasley (or Parsle
y, Presley). Indiana Marriage Index showsEarl Abbett married May Pasl
ey 01 Mar 1914 in Clark County, Indiana. Othersinclude:
Callamatta McGannon Earl Abbett 7 Feb 1920 Marion
Minnie I Schultz Earl C Abbott 21 Aug 1906 Marion
Fay Stong Earl A Abbett 26 Feb 1914 Marion
Lillian C Thomas Earl C Abbott 29 Sep 1911 Marion
Earl & Nellie had a son, Robert Earl, born 26 Jan 1915, in Bartholomew Cou
nty. In 1920, he was living with his grandparents Frank & Nellie Pasle
y, Jackson County, Indiana. Ihaven't found him in the census after that.
I'm really suspecting that this Earl Abbett is not ours, but one of the ot
hers.
WWI DRAFT REGISTRATION
Earl A. Abbett, born 10 May 1892, registered for the WWI draft in St. Lou
is, Missouri, and stated on his draft card that he had a wife and one so
n, age 1 1/2.
DEATH
SSDI says he died Jul 1969 in Lake City, Missaukee, Michigan.
NOTES
One of the things that make finding him difficult is that there were thre
e, Earl Abbetts in Bartholomew County, Indiana, at the same time...ou
rs 10 May 1892, a son of James & Ida Mitchell Abbett, from the Indiana Bir
th Index; another born Jul 1892, with a sister Goldie, a grandson of Hen
ry & Anna Mitchell (1900 Census); and another born Feb 1893, a son of Will
iam & Mary Abbott (1900 Census).
