You'll find ( down under WORLD CONNECT ) 37 listings, most of which are your Abraham. These folks seem to be heavily connected with Wood co. Abraham is listed as buried in IOOF cem. in Parkersburg. His grandson Wm. is buried in Mt. Olivet same town. Abraham's Mom was Hannah Neal. I'm pretty sure her Dad was about the first guy in Parkersburg ( Fort Neal, Neal's Station, Neal Island ). Several of the Rootsweb listings have pegigrees to click on for the Dads and Moms which go back to 1600's Europe. There's a lot of stuff here to keep you busy. I found just a small Jackson Co. connection with William being born in Ravenswood then next kid born back in Wood Co. Good luck, yell if you hit a snag.
