Dear Sir:
Concerning my own ancestry, especially one Abraham DeHaven (also written DeHaavan, DeHeaven), descendents of Indehove, of pre-Revolutionary days, I should like to request your help.
Abraham DeHaven lived in Cannonsburg, Washington County, Penna., in about 1800. My great-grandfather Nathaniel DeHaven was born in Cannonsburg, Penna., and was certainly the son of either Abraham DeHaven, or of an Edward DeHaven, who lived at that time, about 1790, in Cannonsburg. One or both of these men, as I understand it, were in the files of the Government for Revolutionary War service, and one of them, Abraham, in the files of the Government for service in the War of 1812.
Will you kindly give me any data relative to these two men, or to the son of one of them, Nathaniel DeHaven mentioned above?
Abraham DeHaven, according to data which I have received, seemed to have been in the Revolutionary War, as a private under Captain Thomas Church, Company 5th Pennsylvania Regiment commanded by Colonel Johnson. He was sick in about 1788, and did not answer roll call in August of that year, but was again enrolled as I understand it, in June 1788, from Chester, Penna. I shall appreciate data as requested.
Thanking you in advance for this courtesy,
I am
