Hello

I have a book with quite a bit of info on this line. I bought it for the info on my ancestors (not ABELL). The ABELL line is an associated family so was included. The book is "THE HOFFMAN-MANNING-SIMMONS FAMILIES OF N.Y.".

"George ABELL b.c.1561 resided in Stapenhill, Derby Co.,and in Hemington, Parish of Lockington, Leicester Co. On 08 Dec 1578, he enrolled at Brasenose College, Oxford at the age of 17. He was admitted to the Inner Temple in 1581. He married Frances COTTON. She was daughter of Richard COTTON of Combermere, Cheshire CO. and Jane SEYLYARD. Richard COTTON's will dated 08 September 1630, and proved 07 Feb 1631, named brothers Andrew COTTON of Combermere, Chester Co., gentleman, and George COTTON of same, Esq., executors. He was buried 13 Sept 1630. (Parish Register, Church of Lockington, Leicestershire, England.)
