The Obituary of Abner Logue's wife

Eleanor Rife Logue
Abner and his wife, Eleanor Rife, were parents of 10 children. He lived to be 80 years old and I can find nothing on him as a resident of Gallia County. Here is his wife's (called Nellie rather than Ellie) obituary:

Logue, Nellie

Death in Morgan -- Mrs. Nellie Logue, widow, of the late Abner Logue, of Morgan Township, died at the home of her son, Mr. Timothy Logue, last Monday morning. She was about 82 years of age. The funeral and burial took place Tuesday. Five sons, Joseph, Wyatt, Zenas, James and Timothy, and one daughter, Mrs. Q. O. Thomas, are left to mourn the loss of a kind mother.
