Lincoln Co., NC, then through David's son, Methodist Episcopal Rev. Joseph Thomas Abernathy, b. 1824, TN, d. 1859 Coosa Co., AL. Rev. Jos. T. preached at Hanover AL, Methodist Church, and contracted typhus while riding circuit. His youngest son, Joseph Robert Abernathy, b. 1858, married Emma Eliza Duke, d/o James Nelson Duke and Delilah Dean. Their daughter Delilah Abernathy, married Robert Lafayette Fuller. the latter were my grandparents. Otis Fuller
