1 Samuel 9:1

The genealogy of Saul is here given as far as Aphiah ("Abiah," I Chronicles 7:8), who was of the house of Becher the son of Benjamin Genesis 46:21. "Kish" I Chronicles 9:35-39 was the son of "Ner" the son of "Jehiel," (or, "Abiel" here and I Samuel 14:51), the first settler ("father," I Chronicles 9:35) at Gibeon, or Gibeah of Saul, and who married "Maachah," a daughter or granddaughter of Caleb. If so, it is obvious that the names of several generations are omitted between Kish and Abiel, and among them that from which the family of Matri I Samuel 10:21 was called.
