Abraham's place of birth would be Abersychan

There are a couple of mentions of an Esther Hawkins and Esther Lane in local papers - very much in passing - which suggest she may have for a time been a beerhouse keeper (possibly the Railway Inn, Pontypool)

as Abraham's father is also Abraham, and both appear to have been innkeepers later on, the papers are a little confusing. Esther's Abraham is a licensed victualler at the Three Cranes Hotel, Crane St, Pontypool in 1881, but he may also have been the licensee of the Railway Inn. His father was at times a timber dealer, farmer and either or both was a carpenter
