RE from your post: Notice hereby given that we will apply to J. GENTRY, probate judge for final settlement [estate] of Hiram MCABEE, SR. J.M. SWITZER, A. J. McABEE, A. L. McABEE. Feb. 12, 1904. Hiram McAbee SR.'s son Hiram Jr. married into my Finch family so I've collected info about this family along the way. Hiram Jr.'s wife was Lucinda "Susan Emma" Emaline Finch and a sister to my ancestor Elizabeth Ann Finch who married William Busser Frey and moved to Louisiana. I'll post a family chart and hope this helps someone out there. Any corrections or additions appreciated. Thanks for the post.
