Notes |
- [This section on Abraham was listed in the original book in this place. We feel it was an error in the original book to be located here and one that we were at a loss as to how to correct. We were not sure exactly where he should fit.
But if you read on page 447, it tells you that Peter Wintermute and Esther Rhodes were the parents of eight children; one of them, Charles, died at an early age. There was no mention of a child named Abraham. Also, as you read about Abraham
it tells you that he had a sister named Sarah. Peter Wintermute had no children named Sarah. One other point is that there were no genealogy codes in the original book after the names of anyone in this section. It was as if Abraham got
misplaced somehow by the printer and was just placed in the book at this spot for lack of a better place. So we were at a loss as to where Abraham fits into the family history. We feel that he does not belong here but we don't really know
where he does fit in. So we just left him here just as he appeared in the original book. You can decide for yourself.]
- They were members of the Presbyterian Church. He had one sister and her name was Sarah. She died while a young woman. Abram and wife were faithful Christians, very modest and quiet in their religious life. At his death it was the
remark of one of the most wicked men of the place, "I would rather stand his chances of Heaven than any man I know." He was a hard working man. He began life with very little means, but by industry and economy he soon was able to buy a farm.
He and his wife made for themselves a comfortable home.
