Linda,
From what I have been able to find, it is not Abram Hixon but Abner Hixon.From what I have been able to piece together, George is in the 1850 Census in Carroll County Ohio listed as Geo Hixen.A Hixen is 65 years old.There is a J A Hixen (female) age 18, an A Hixon age 15 who I believe is Abner junior, and an M Hixen (female) age 45 who I believe is Abner's second wife, Martha.Her married name was Chisler or Shisler which would explain the male Shisler in the household.Abner was the county surveyor in Harrison County for a number of years.Alcinda was also born in Harrison County before moving to Gallia/Lawrence area.
Assuming my search is correct, that will lead you back to numerous other Hixon's (Hixson's) in New Jersey and back to England.I have no relatives in the Hixon tree but am doing all the research for a family friend.Her tree is the Hixon/Thompson Tree on Ancestry.com
Hope this may help.
