Abbatt Family Collection
User Collection Public
The Abbatt family was a Quaker family who lived in the towns and villages of Preston, Ribchester and Garstang in Lancashire, England. Family members include Robert Abbatt, Jonathan Abbatt (1829-1905), and Mary Dilworth Abbatt (1828-1901). The collection is comprised of courtship correspondence between Jonathan Abbatt and Mary Dilworth.
The letters chronicle their courtship, discussions of faith, and local events, and feature examples of cross-hatching, where a letter writer saved paper by overlapping one set of writing with another set at right angles.
The collection also includes a bound volume of a copy of a waterworks grant (dating from 1729 to 1750) from the Corporation of Preston for Robert Abbatt and Thomas Kellet to establish Preston Waterworks.
Additional materials relating to the family can be found in the Abbatt Family Fonds.

- This letter is part of a series of courtship correspondence between Jonathan Abbatt and Mary Dilworth (later Abbatt). The Abbatt family was a Quaker family who lived in the towns and villages of Preston, Ribchester, and Garstang in Lancashire, England. The letters chronicle the courtship, discussions of faith, local events, shared sentiments, etc. Mary sometimes addressed as Polly in the letters. Please note that the months on the letters’ dates were added as numerical values rather than the month's name (e.g. 2 Mo = February). Jonathan mentions that he and Mary's cousin David ran into each other twice at the train station, to try and catch her before she left for Liverpool, but she had probably already left. He mentions his sister Jane is expecting him to visit soon, and expect she'll be happy when he tells her he'll be visiting Mary again. He asks Mary to extend greetings to George Glover and his wife, who she's staying with, even though he is a Quaker (this is the first mention about this in his letters). Envelope addressed to Mary via George Glover, 38 Vauxhall Road, Liverpool.
