I am interested in an Abbott family that lived in the Little Blue area until at least 1904 before moving to Arkansas. Isaac Monroe Abbott (1881-1966) was my ggrandfather and James Abbott (middle name either Monroe or Isaac, 1856-1926) was my gggrandfather. These two obits are for Abbotts that I do not know but thought that the obit might give family information that might aid in making a connection. Thanks. Cornelia Abbott December 1915 Robert F. Abbott June 1922
