History of Lawrence, ORANGE, and Washington Counties, Indiana
Goodspeed Bros. & Co., Publishers - Chicago, 1884

           [586]

           WILLIAM P. GABBERT, druggist and apothecary, is a native
        Indianian, born at Salem, November 27, 1853, and is of German
        descent. His parents, CHARLES D. and REBECCA (BARNETT) GABBERT,
        were natives of Kentucky and Virginia, respectively, and were
        among the early settlers of Washington County, Ind.  WILLIAM P.
        was raised on his father's farm and in early years secured a good
        common school education.  In 1870 he came to Paoli, and for three
        years was employed as general manager of the widely known ALBERT
        Hotel, which has since burned.  He afterward clerked in a drug
        store for a time and was then sent to Orleans to take charge of a
        drug store at that place for DR. J. H. BOWLES, and there remained
        three years. In 1882 with JOHN A. HUDELSON for a partner, and under
        the firm name of GABBERT & HUDELSON, he embarked in the drug trade
        at Paoli and has since continued.  MESSRS. GABBERT & HUDELSON have
        upward of $8,000 invested in their drug business and their store
        and stock is far superior to the average country drug stores, and
        would be a credit to any city in Indiana.  The marriage of MR.
        GABBERT and Miss BELLE, daughter of JOHN P. and ELVIRA E. FOSTER
        was solemnized in 1874, and to them have been born two children:
        MAGGIE and CHARLES F., deceased.
