4) GENERAL NOTES (with source citations as indicated in brackets):
Sophia Trimmer was born in about 1755 in Amwell, New Jersey to Matthias and Anna Martha (Nachbar) Trimmer. She is named as "Sofie Abel" (wife of John Auble) in her father's 1791 will.[1]
Sophia Trimmer married John Abel on 30 January 1777 in the Zion Lutheran Church[2-3]. The marriage record in the Zion Lutheran Church records say:
"[1777] John Abel & Sophia Trimmer, Jam. 30"
Zion Lutheran Church birth and baptism records (New Germantown, New Jersey) include the children of Johannes/John and Sophia (Trimmer) Abel/Able/Auble[4].
Sophia (Trimmer) Able probably died before 1811, when John Able married, secondly, to widow Mary Cripps on 17 April 1811.
