I’ll try and download / upload the image

Margrietje Antoniusz Abeel Is missing children, I’ve added citations for their births to her profile. Can they be entered? I think it’s David who is of particular interest.

Found the wife of David Abeel and her family - Neeltje Abeel

Looks like Capt. David C Abeel, Jr. parents may be different.

David Abeel married Maria Duyckink on February 24, 1726 in New York City. Maria Duyckink was the daughter of Garret Duyckink and Marie (Mary) Abeel. This means that David and Maria were first cousins. Maria was born on October 4th 1702 in Albany and died on September 26th 1780 in New York City. [14] The exact number of children they had has been difficult to find. According to Whittemore’s The Abeel and allied Families they had four children: David Jr., James, Garret and Annetti. According to Duyckink’s Duyckink and allied families they had eight children: Johannes, Gerradus (died in infancy), David Jr., Cathalina, (died in infancy) Gerradus, Gerrit, Cathalina and James (or Jacobus). David Abeel Sr. died on October 20th 1777 in New York City.

Will of David Abeel Jr. [15]
David Abeel Jr. was born on August 13th 1727 in Albany. He married Neiltje(Neeltie) Van Bergen on July 2, 1752.[16] They had five children: Annatie (died in infancy), Anthony, Garret, Annatje and Catharine. [17]He settled in Catskill New York and in 1771 he purchased one thousand acres of land in Bak-Oven, near Catskill.[18] David Jr. was a strong patriot of the Revolution. Many of his neighbors were Tories, which led to many arguments and strong tension between the families. In 1780 a group of Indians led by Jacobus Rowe, one David’s angry neighbors, entered the Abeel home and held David and his son Anthony captive. David Abeel’s slaves had aided in the attack. They had been notified in advance and during the family’s absence they had stuffed ashes into the men’s guns so they would be useless. One slave named Lon even helped in tying up his masters! David Abeel Jr. died on February 5th 1813 in Bak-Oven, New York.

Private User The slave owning information I added for David Abeel specifically references the censuses and they are all listed under "References". Those are "original sources."

What’s the verdict on David’s parents?

Tamás Flinn Caldwell-Gilbert It was not citted properly on the page to be convenient to look at. When you post something controversial on someone's page, it is customary "good form" to cite the sources there. You said nothing about the rest of the man's life, one sentence. Research is a two way street.
