Abner is an unincorporated community in Kaufman County, located in the U.S. state of Texas.

The community was initially known as Johnson's Point starting in 1871, named after Abner Johnson, who settled the area in the 1840s after piloting a keelboat on the Trinity River two years prior.

A post office under that name opened in 1871, but only lasted for two years, giving up its mail service to Terrell.

[2] Abner's first school district, named Johnson's Point, was established in 1885 by the Kaufman County Commissioner's Court.
