Biography

There is recorded an interesting story that when he was a young man, Abraham desecrated an Indian grave, stealing a pipe, beads and knives. The Indian Chief and his entourage went to the town and demanded the thief, threatening a raid. Abe had moved to Minnesota, and the townspeople told them so. It was apparently a very tense situation, until the townspeople signed an agreement that no other graves would be disturbed. Abraham married Eva E. Smith in Ohio around 1833. Abraham fought in the Civil War, enlisting Feb. 20, 1864 in Company I, 35th Wisconsin Volunteers. He died September 10, 1864 in New Orleans of disease. He is buried in Chalmette, St. Bernard, Louisiana. ^[1]
