Looking for information to confirm that Samuel Abell I b. ca. 1650 was married to Anne (Gardiner) and the approx date.
John: Luke Gardiner, Will dated 1703,[Liber 3, folio 470, Md Calendar of Wills] lists his daughters Mary and Susannah and leaves them 80 Acres "The Fourth Addition" and part of "St Johns" Susannah is given by most researchers as the wife of Samuel Abell - marriage date after 1703. Luke Gardiner married Elizabeth Hatton, and Luke was the son of Richard Gardiner and Elizabeth Hame. Richard's ancestry has ot as yet been determined. He is not the
descendant of William Gardiner of Bermondsey as reported in some places.
