His family is on the 1868 census and not on the 1870 census.
Because his parents, Rebecca's parents and three of their children are buried here, they most likely are also. They may have been victims of the cholera epidemic of the 1860s. There is no documentation.

Suggested edit: The information currently indicates the family was not found in the 1870 census.
Robert Abernathy and his 5 youngest children are found in the 1870 census (Preston, Union County, Illinois). His wife Rebecca is not listed. Listed with Robert is a woman named Mary, identified as a house keeper.
