Ner was the son of Abiel, and the brother (not the father) of Kish. I found a convincing exposition of this at the following website:...
1 Samuel 14:51 refers to “Ner the father of Abner” who was Saul’s cousin. Saul’s father, Kish, and Abner’s father, Ner, were brothers, having the same father...

I'm with you Trish on this. I don't believe angels, fallen or otherwise, have sex. We don't read anywhere in scripture that angels, definitively, had sex...
