"Abner S. Riddick is a native of this county, his birth occurring on the farm where he now resides, on January 12, 1858, and is a son Benjamin F. Ruddick, who was born in Virginia in 1812. The father is one of the pioneers now living in this county, having resided here since 1845, and having emigrated from Tennessee. He was engaged in farming, and is one of the much respected and esteemed citizens of the county. His wife was formerly Miss Laura Cleaves, whose birth occurred in South Carolina about 1816, and she is living at the present time. Of the nine children born to his parents, Benjamin F. is the eighth in order of birth. He recieved his education in the common schools of this county, and in the fall of 1886 was married to Miss Nancy L. Johnson, a native of Nevada County, Ark., born in 1868, and the daughter of William R. Johnson [see first subject]. Two children are the result of this union; Daniel B. and Annie L. Mr. Riddick has 235 acres of land, with about seventy-five acres under cultivation and resides about eighteen miles southwest of Camden. He served as bailiff in this county two years. He is a member of the K. of P. lodge at Stephens, and in his political views is strictly Democratic, casting his vote for Gen. Hancock. Mrs. Riddick is a member of the Baptist Church."
