Kathleen Ann Landis Delp notes:

the Abraham listed is in my Cassel book page 395 lists he married Margaret Detweiler the sister to his fathers 2nd wife.

There are discrepancies and I’ve reached the end of my knowledge, so appreciate help.

Jim Wile do you have any ideas?

  • 1. The Abraham listed in the Cassel book did marry Margaret Detweiler but they did not have a daughter named Mary, Polly, or Mary Ann.
  • 2. The other Abraham that married Elizabeth King has a residence timeline that coincides with Mary. By 1860, Abraham and Elizabeth were in Illinois. That is where Mary married Moses in 1857 and was living in 1860. Around 1878, Moses and Mary moved to Kansas. Her sister, Fanny Attebery also moved to Kansas before 1880. After the death of Abraham, widow Elizabeth was in Kansas by 1880 living with her daughter, Mary's sister, Fanny.
  • I am convinced that Find a Grave is wrong. Mary is the daughter of Abraham and Elizabeth King not the Abraham and Margaret listed in the Cassel book, who lived their lives in Montgomery County, PA.

Thank you Jim Wile wrong parents disconnected.
