About Abigail DeHaven
Abigail’s parents were: William (The Rebel) West and Rebecca Jane West (born Braswell). She was born in 1746 in Fort Washington, Montgomery County. Abigail died in 1827 at the age of 81 and Peter died in 1822 also at the age of 81. They are both buried in the Back Creek Quaker Cemetery, Gainesboro, Frederick Co., VA as well as their son Isaac. Descendents erected a modern gravestone for Peter and Abigail DeHaven in the old Back Creek Quaker Cemetery. The late Robert Unger arranged for the Veteran's Administration to donate a tombstone for this Revolutionary War veteran's grave, and Edward Shirley was responsible for erecting the stone. No one seems to know why the DeHavens were buried here, in that neither were Quakers. One of their daughters, Leanna(1772-1853) married Quaker David Adams, and this may have been a connection. The cemetery is now maintained by the United Methodist Church, and burials are still made at this site.
