George Abell, Born in St. Mary's Co., Md. Received land from his father-in-law, Josiah Crawford. Attended St. Andrew's Church where George shared a pew with his father, Enoch, and John Silence. Names of children taken from St. Andrew's Episcopal Church records, Leonardstown, Md. The family moved to Nelson Co, KY.
DAR index: George is listed as Patriotic Service in the Revolutionary War.
Listed as a tithable of Nelson Co.Ky. July 1789 in Capt. Reed's Company in July 1790 and 1791 under Capt. Edward Williams. He is listed on the 1793 and 1794 Tax List of Nelson Co. as owning 91 acres. He is again listed on the 1795 and 1796 List, his 91 acres are noted on the Beech Fork watercourse.
George's will is dated 9/2/1803 and recorded 9/9/1804 in Nelson Co, KY. Identifies wife as Elizabeth; 3 sons: Enoch B., Pollard and Francis; 4 daughters: Ann, Judith, Catherine and Elizabeth. Executors: Elizabeth Abell and William Abell. (Son, George, is not mentioned. It is likely he received his inheritance earlier.)

Could some one add to this information.
Thanks
Anna Mae
