I looked at this also. I am not sure who this is. Lot Abraham b 1775 and married to Susannah Griffin also had a son named Lot Abraham b 1809 in Butler Co Ohio. I don't have any info on his descendents but maybe this John is one of them. The John Abraham who married Katherine Bartlett was born in 1840, so this is not the same fellow. They had a habit of naming one kid John and another kid Lot in every generation for a hundred years or so. Very inconvenient for future researchers.
