Biography

"She was a quaint and pathetic figure about the square, in her outworn garments and faded shawl. But she was also a gifted woman; and she was a brave soul, who fought out unwaveringly a long battle with poverty and ill health." The Andover Townsman, Andover, Massachusetts, October 21, 1921, Page Five

• Abbott Genealogies at Memorial Hall Library. Andover genealogist Charlotte Helen Abbott wrote these unpublished genealogies. Earlier versions of some genealogies were published in the Andover Townsman, the local newspaper. They generally cover older Andover families through the late 19th century. Miss Abbott's genealogies are subjective and rich with anecdotes, but list few sources. Kay O’Neil, with the cooperation of the Andover Historical Society, worked to digitize the typescript manuscript. Originals are also held at Memorial Hall Library.
