If you read Hebrew, you can see how his given name can be read downwards from the first letters in each line before it is written  the usual way : 
                                                                                                                                                א

                                                                                                                    אברהם


My theory for this family tree is this:
Jakob and Laja GABEL had a son named Symcha Benjamin GABEL, born around 1835. 

Symcha Benjamin GABEL   married Rifka BODENSTEIN, born ca 1840.

Symcha Benjamin and Rifka had a son they named Abraham GABEL, born around 1863. Abraham GABEL married Taube nee GABEL . She was born around 1865.


In 1915 both Symcha Benjamin GABEL and his wife Rifka nee BODENSTEIN died.

Their daughter-in-law Tauba GABEL nee GABEL died in 1920.
Their son Abraham GABEL died in 1933.
