Abbie was the second child of Benjamin and Nancy West. She was born in Illinois in 1854. The birth year on her tombstone is 1855, but that is incorrect. The family Bible states that she was born 1 Mar 1854 and that her brother 19 Aug 1855. It is impossible that she was born five months before her brother. His birth date is confirmed by his tombstone and the 1860 census report.
Abbie traveled with her parents over the Oregon Trail when ten years old and settled in Benton County, Oregon. Six years later she married Henry M. Stone. They had one child--Otto Stone, who died in a shooting accident at age 18.
