Andrew was initially buried in Gowanda State Hospital. The cemetery is a sad place where no names are on the headstones, only patient numbers. A dedicated, noble group of kind volunteers has worked hard to give each person a name and a family.

There is no stone in Cassadaga Cemetery for Andy or his wife Julia. Andy was an optometrist and died in Collins in Erie County, NY and his body came by train to Cassadaga to be buried. Technically where he died at the time was known as Helmuth, NY as the hospital there had their own post office. Thanks to Marta Cain 48540755 for solving a big mystery for Andy and his burial.
His wife Julia was an optometrist in Jamestown too. Andrew and Julia had at least 2 wonderful sons. William was also a Sergeant in WWII

In later life Dr Abell, his wife and 2 sons lived in Lily Dale NY . Previously he had lived in Jamestown -from obituary Salamanca news
. Technically where he died at the time was known as Helmuth, NY as the hospital there had their own post office. Originally I had him here but took him and put him in Cassadaga and removed him but it's also best he is referenced here as this is where he is thought be buried originally. Andy died of despondency at the hospital intentionally because he knew the illness he had was incurable. Thanks to Marta Cain 48540755 for solving a big mystery.

Andrew had a first wife, Florence, no other info is available
