Sarah Ella Abbett (1872-1952), daughter of John Ezekial Abbott/Abbett and Mary 
Elizabeth Shockley, was fondly called "Shug" by her family and friends. A 
small woman in stature, but physically strong and bright, "Shug" was descended 
from a long line of hard-working and honest people who were in the colonies 
before the Revolutionary War. 

"Shug's" brothers were Jackson W. Abbett, Thomas E. Abbett, John Jordan 
Abbett, James E. Abbett, and Albert Gaines Abbett. Her sisters were Frances 
Emma Abbett Ingram, Mary Jane Abbett Tapley Stephenson, Nancy A. Abbett Smith, 
Martha Susan Abbett Tapley. 

"Shug" married Eli Jackson Harris, son of William D. Harris and Emeline 
Burnett, October 30, 1895, in Tallapoosa County, Alabama. They had six girls: 
Ludie Harris Harrelson, Onnie Pearl Harris Patterson, Ella Mae Harris Evers, 
Katie Bell Harris Boone, Minnie Lee Harris Powell, and Mary Ann Harris Scott. 
Their son, Reuben Harris, died at an early age. 

"Shug" died in 1952 at the home of her youngest daughter, Mary Ann Harris 
Scott, located on Scott Road, Alexander City, Alabama.
