Jim,
John Ezekiel Abbett was born 1835, probably in Pike Co., Ga. He was the son of Thomas J. Abbett, b 1804, probably in Ga., and Mary Jane Carden. John married Mary Elizabeth Shockley on 4-18-1863, in Pike Co. He joined Co. G, 6th Alabama Infantry and was captured at Gettysburg 7-4-1863. He was released five days later and took "French Leave" and went home to recoup from dysentry. He rejoined Co. H, 8th Cavalry, at Marietta, Ga., 6-12-1864. He was captured again 9-6-1864, at Wheeler's Raid, Woodbury, Tenn. He was released from Camp Chase, Ohio, 6-14-1865. He returned to Tallapoosa Co., where he an Mary raised ten children.
It is very possible that these two men were related, maybe even brothers.
Let me know what you think.
