LEVI T. ABBOTT, farmer, P. O. Ripley. Among Brown's native born citizens is the subject of this sketch, who added one to the population of Pleasant Township in 1835. His parents, Charles and Sarah (Brown) were among those of its earliest pioneers, where he is, at this present time, yet living, in the enjoyment of a ripe old age. His respected companion passed to the better land in 1856. They raised a family of six children, and Levi was reared on the homestead farm. He was married Mar. 1, 1859, to Miss Mary Jones, a native of this county and a daughter of Samuel Jones, a pioneer relic, who died in this county May 20, 1880. Mr. Abbott is associated with the Methodist Episcopal Church at Ripley, and, although he had the disadvantages of educational privileges, he has, by his own ambition and economy, secured a good home and made life a success. Politically, he is a man bound to no party or power, but acts entirely from principle, and is a man of his own choice.
