Three of Abraham's sons moved further south into Hamilton County, Florida, according to an article in Vol. 18, #22 of the Hawkinsville Dispatch dated Thursday Morning, 29 May 1884.

Carruthers, Ed Isaac, Daniel Mathews, James Oliver Jelks, Sam Robuck, Pleasant Robuck, William Robuck, D. T. Cross, Jacob Shiver, Isaac Shiver and Bone Shiver."
