Looking for ABNEY

Classification: Query
Surnames: ABNEY
I am looking for the family of the ABNEY descendents of ALONZO JOHNATHAN ABNEY, (b. 1881 in Alabama d. 02 Oct 1948 in Vancouver, BC). He married Rebecca Ketterh Blakesley (1890 - 04 Jul 1945). They settled in Vancouver, British Columbia, and I believe had 13 children (possibly born in Washington State).

Thank you Stella. You have been most helpful! The information from the BC Archives provided great supporting documents to a few unknowns I had.
I was unaware that Alonzo was married for a second time. I will have to investigate this a little further. Thank you again! Your assistance is greatly appreciated!
