Biography

Excerpt taken from History Of Logan, Co. Illinois: written by Robert B. Lathem; Pg.433

Abigal Hoblit, his widow, still enjoys good health; she is living on the homestead where within a radius of twelve miles are her six children, twenty grand and two great grand children; she was a true help mate, sharing all the toils of frontier life; she made every thing worn by the family for years; many of the articles are yet preserved and should be carefully kept by those having them as they can not now be duplicated; she was a brave and devoted mother, a model housekeeper and her boys and girls yet aver that none can cook like mother and grandmother Hoblit.
