Notes:

Research Notes for Glenn E. Abbott:

The records conflict on his birth date.

The 1892 NY state census, taken 16 Feb 1892, states that he was 3 years old. The 1900 census says he was born May 1890, inconsistent with the 1892 census. The 1905 NY state census gives age 15. His WW I draft registration card gives birth date 7 Dec 1888, which conflicts with the birth date of his older brother, Howard Larue Abbott, who was born 25 Sep 1888. His WW II draft card states that he was born 7 Dec 1898 in Hamburg, New York. This conflicts with the 1900 census, and nearly every other birth record. The Florida death index reports that he was born 7 Dec 1889, died 9 Feb 1972 in Volusia, Florida.¹ The U.S. Social Security Death Index agrees, giving birth date 7 Dec 1889.
