Hello; I have a John Lahman, born 1813, died 1890, married Pricilla Feazel, born 1818, died 1874 in Ohio. Her first husband was Jacob Cochran. John and Pricilla's Children; Eva, Jacob L.(1851-1940) and Marrissa S. (1854-1929). I don't know if John is related to Abraham, but by the dates they may have been brothers.
