Married Joseph Abney, 2-4-1858, Edgefield, SC & 2nd married T. S. Arthur, Attorney.
From John Abney Chapman: "After the war Mr. Abney returned to his home in Edgefield, and resumed the practice of the law. A few years before the war he married Miss Susan Miller, a beautiful and accomplished woman, a lovely and amiable wife. In the late war between the States he was again a volunteer in the service of the Confederate States, in which he held the rank of Major. He died a few years after the war at his home at Edgefield, leaving a widow and two daughters surviving him. His widow, a few years after his death, married T. S. Arthur, a lawyer of Greenville, who afterwards settled at Lexington, where she has since died.
Mr. Abney left no sons; there were two, Paul and Charles, born. His daughter Agatha, who married Rev. Mr. Woodson, is living at their home in Edgefield where her father died. His daughter Eleanor is not living, not living in this world, but is, we hope, with her father and mother in a better. Sophie died young."
