Marriage* Margaret (__________) married John Abbott per 1903 news article "They subsequently moved to a farm near Bethlehem, Ind., and were the parents of five sons, of whom we have lost all trace." 
Deed*7 August 1799  On 7 August 1799 at Jefferson Co., Kentucky: John & Margaret Abbott to David Spangler, 100 acres, being part of the land held in right of the dower of Margaret as widow and relict of William Spangler.
It appears that John & Margaret Abbott left their older children in Kentucky. Milly may have become acquainted with Peter Peckinpaugh through Henry Peckinpaugh, Peter's uncle, though only 4 years older, who was married to Catherine Spangler.
The book also says "How, or whether Catherine Spangler was related to William Spangler is not known. She was the daughter of George & Mary C Spangler, and married Henry 17 May 1804 in Jefferson Co KY." However, the Catherine who married Henry is the daughter of William & Margaret, not a George & Mary.1

She made a visit to this farm, riding horseback from Bethlehem when past 80 years old, to receive her yearly stipend, about the year 1843. David and Maggie Koons, being children of ten and twelve, walked over before breakfast to see their great-grand-mother.
