Birth	circa 1858	Abbie was born circa 1858 in Ohio. When she was married in 1875 she claims to be 17 years old, therefore born ca 1858.  A note on the funeral record indicates that she was born in Trumbull county, Ohio on 2 April 1857.    There is a NELLIE Niblick who is 2 years old living in Warren, Trumbull county, Ohio on the 1860 census.  Father Jas. is 27 years old born in Pennsylvania and mother is Mary,  26 born in Ohio.  Jas. is a butcher. On the 1900 US census she claims to have been born in October of 1857. 13
Marriage	1 Aug 1875	Abbie Niblick married Alexander Frank Eastman, who was 21 years old,  son of Rev William W Eastman and Sarah J Baker, 1 August 1875 in Cambria, Hillsdale county, Michigan. Her name is from the 1880 census. But on the marriage register for Hillsdale county her name is given as NIBLACK. Alexander was 21 years old, a farmer, Abbie was 17. Both living in Cambria. They were married by W. W. Eastman, who we believe to be the father of Alexander.4

Born in Canada, father born in New York and mother born in Vermont. Wife is Sarah J., 45 years old, so she could be a second wife. Son Alexander, his wife Abba, and children are also in this household. Daughter Ella M is 15 and still at home. Ella was born in Minnesota so it is likely that William was living in Minnesota about 1865. At this time they are living next door to Ellis McKnight.6
