(I could not find Abbie's husband Henry Todd in the 1880 census even though she stated herself as married. Don't know where he was.)
About 1890 in Dakota, Abigail (Beadle) Todd md. to Lafayette LaVanway. He was the brother of George H. LaVanway & George LaVanway was father of Blanche LaVanway who md. to George W. Todd. So George Todd's stepfather Lafayette was also George Todd's wife Blanche's uncle.
Hope this is of some help.
