4) NOTES (with source citations as indicated in brackets):
The information on this Abel family was obtained from the book The Able Aubles by Juanita Hayter Crampton[1].
Christina was born about 1730, probably in Morris County, New Jersey. The Find A Grave memorial says her maiden name was Buhner, but I have found no records with that maiden name[2].
Michel Abel married Christina in about 1755, and they had nine children between 1757 and 1771. The names of the children may provide some clues to the names of their parents - they were Andreas, Johannes, Matthias, Mary, Jacob, Anna Elisabeth, Catharine, Eva and Christina[1].
Both Michel and Christina Able are buried in the Zion Lutheran Church graveyard at Oldwick, Tewksbury township, Hunterdon, New Jersey[2]. There is a footstone with "C.A. 1804" on it, with no headstone. This stone was beside another footstone "M.A. 1791" (which could possibly be Michel Abel). This footstone is assumed to be the grave marker for Christina Abel.
