Goshen Daily News-Times
September 6, 1912Frank P. Abbott died Saturday evening at 6:30 o'clock at his home No. 313 East Lincoln avenue, of uremia after an illness covering a period of about six months. Deceased was 56 years and seven months old. He had taken ill on March 4th with the disease which caused his death and was confined to his home and for the greater part of the time to his bed since then. His death was expected at many times since he was taken sick but his remarkable vitality aided him over every crisis until Saturday evening when he succombed to the ravages of the malady.
Frank P. Abbott was born at Merrimacport, Mass., Jan. 22, 1856. His parents, Mr. and Mrs. William Abbott moved to Jefferson township, Elkhart county, December 1, 1862. He attended the country schools and also went to school in Goshen. The family finally moved to Goshen and the senior Abbott became a pump maker. He and his wife died here and their bodies are buried in Oak Ridge cemetery. The son worked in his father's pump shop which for a time was located at the corner of Clinton and Sixth streets, ... . Eventually Mr. Abbott obtained employment in the lumber mill owned by John H. Lesh. After some experience there he went to Tennessee and started a lumber industry himself, but did not succeed financialy, and returned to Goshen to again work in the Lesh mill. Subsequently he was given the management, ... . He was also employed by the late Wm. of the Lesh industry at Rolling Prairee, Ind., and there he began a career of prosperity that continued uninteruptedly and at so rapid a rate that within a few years he had laid the foundation for wealth.
When the Lesh, Prouty and Abbott Co. was organized in East Chicago, Ind., Feb 17, 1890, Mr. Abbott became president of the concern. He was also identified with the Mishler, Penrod & Abbott Co. formed in South Bend in December of 1899 and with the J. W. Thompson Co. of Memphis Tenn., organized in July 1900. These concerns all prospered enormously and made those who had invested in them very wealthy. The mills have since been abandoned.
Oct. 20, 1880, Mr. Abbott was united in marriage with Miss Jeannette Hascall of Goshen. The family moved to East Chicago in 1889. In 1897 Mr. Abbott of John H. Lesh the fine residence at 313 East Lincoln avenue and returned to this city to reside. He spent much of the time between Goshen and East Chicago and also made nunerous trips into Tennessee, but for several years past he has been in virtual retirement from business activity. His health failed and he remained in Goshen, spending his summers until this year at his Lake Wawasee cottage.
Mr. Abbott was a member of th Maccabees and was also an Elk. His family consists of his wife, five daughters, Mrs. R. W. Lardner of Chicago and the Misses Ruby, Florence, Jeannette and Dorothy Abbott; and three sons, Frank, Jr., John H. and William. He is also survived by one brother, William Abbott, who is employed as an engraver in New York City; and two sisters, Mrs. Fanny Chamberlain of Goshen and Mrs. E. Boudinot Stockton of Winooski Vt.
At the time of his death, Mr. Abbott was a director and president of the State bank of Goshen and a director of the Elkhart County Trust Co. He had been identified with banking in Goshen for a number of years.
His complete success as a lumberman is a striking example of what can be accomplished through energy and a close application to business. About 25 years ago he labored by the day in a factory. Gaining knowledgeof the lumber industry he borrowed money and made an unfavorable individual start in the south. Returning to Goshen he renewed his efforts and through his perseverance became a man of wealth. Having started at the very bottom of his business he thoroughly understood all phases of it and this personal knowledge was to a very large degree responsible for his success.
