Abraham was also the father of Keene Field (abt. 1774-1815) our first immigrant ancestor in Indiana for the Fields in that State. Keene Field was the brother of Pvt. Joseph Field (-1807) and Pvt. Rueben Field (-1822) of the Lewis and Clark Expedition. At least the Field lineage had some ties with the Lewis & Clark Expedition, not related, so far, just participated. Lucie Field and her family also found the tombstones of Diana Field (1840-1858) and Anna P. Kelly (Field) (1797-1856), daughters of Henry and Frances Field. Anna P was the wife of Col. John Payne Kelly (1789-1871) - another grave was of Frances "Fannie" Field Kelly Berry, wife of John S. Berry. The graves of Frances Hill Field and Diana Field were side by side under a Juniper tree, the stones were in good condition. There were many depressions in the ground near the tombstones indicating other graves. The land was at the crest of a hill that sloped east toward the Rappahannock River.
