Family History

In the 1890s, this was the home of attorney William D. Abbott (1859-1921) and his wife Lorena Mary “Rena” Adams. The couple lived in the home with their daughter, Helen.
Mr. Abbott was held in high esteem in the community. He was one of nine children of New England stock . He worked his way through college and rose in the ranks of his profession to eventually own his own firm, Abbott and Somsen.  He also was a trustee of his church for over 20 years.
His obituary was so long, that I did not print it all, but it was said of Mr. Abbott that he was a great friend, had a keen mentality and capacity for work, and was a man of outstanding merit.
