Aaron Abbott was born about 1800 married about 1835. If son is Willam Jefferson Abbott, then he would probably have been born after approx 1835.

Is this the individual you looking for?

From where did William Abbott emigrate? Could it have been through Rowan, NC? His son, Joseph, married Nancy Gears. She was from Rowan, NC.I learned that William and Martha were the first Abbotts (of that side of the family) - pioneers - in Pike, IN. I do not know Martha's last name.
In this probate record for William Abbott, the children listed include:  Edwin, James, Milton, Leonard, Matilda, Nancy J?, and William Oliver. Unless you know that your Joseph predesceased his father, this would likely not be your William Abbott. I have no information about from where this William Abbott emigrated.
