Peter DEHAVEN⁽¹⁴²⁰⁾ was born on 31 Jan 1741 in Philadelphia, Montgomery Co, Pa.⁽¹¹⁹¹⁾⁽²⁵⁸⁰⁾ He served in the military about 1780 in Chester Co, Pa.⁽²⁵⁸¹⁾ Served with the 4th Battalion. Rank 5th and 7th. Commander was Capt. Israel Moore per Muster Roll, "Military Accounts, Record of the Comptroller General or Auditor General, A (5) V, 683-685.
Name appears in Absentee Returns, dated 26 Apr 1779, of 4th Batallion, 3rd Company, Capt, Adam Foulk commanding.
Also 34d Regiment of Foot Soldiers, 3rd Class, enlisted August 10, 1780 under Capt. Andrew Burkhard.
Served in 1781 as 5th Class, per Appeal book, September 28, 1781. He died on 4 Feb 1822 in Frederick Co, VA.⁽¹¹⁹¹⁾ ⁽²⁵⁸²⁾ He was buried in Friend's Cemetary, Gainesboro, Frederick Co, Va.⁽²⁵⁸³⁾ Took oath of allegiance on June 15, 1778 as notarized by W. Knogliser. In October of 1781, Peter served as a private with the 4th Battalion, Philadelphia County Militia. After the Revolutionary war, Peter moved his family to Back Creek Valley, Virginia, at the head of the fertile Shenandoah Valley. Peter may have moved his family to Frederick County, Va for several reasons. The national economy was very poor and many citizens began to move west after the war. Peter was a stone mason and would not have lacked work in any area where new settlement was occurring. In less populated areas barter and trading were used frequently and the Continental currency which was so devalued, was not so important. The area to which Peter and Abigail moved their family was at the head of the fertile Shenandoah Valley. During the Civil War, the area was one of the main sources of food for the Confederate Army. Before the end of the war, the Union Army plundered the length of the valley to destroy the supply lines. There was a great deal of property damage, both public and private. Court houses were burned and irreplaceable records were lost forever. Frederick County is located on the northern border of Virginia. In 1861, Virginia split because part of the state did not want to secede from the Union. The western counties, now West Virginia, remained loyal to the Union. Although right on the border, Frederick County stayed a part of Virginia. In 1863, West Virginia was admitted to the Union as a state. Frederick County was founded in 1744. George Washington began his career as a surveyor there. Two battles were fought in the area during the Civil War. In a 1910 or 1911 atlas published by the Geographical Publishing Company, Chicago, there is a town of less than 100 named Dehaven, located in extreme Northern Frederick County. Peter and Abigail had no idea that they were moving their family right onto the border of a civil war that would tear the United States apart. This war would cause the family to begin a westward move that took future generations to the West Coast of this new nation.

Over a period of nineteen years, from 1742 to 1761, Peter deeded this land to his sons by his wife, Sidonia.

From the Whitpain source.."The family originated in Alsasce-Loraine when that area was juggled back and forth between France and Germany. In the era around 1682, the name was in Hoffe or Indehove or other variations, depending in which country they happened to be. In France they followed the Protestant Hugenot faith and tradition, and were often ostracized in that Catholic country.

"When William Penn's offers came, subsequently many bothers--with their own fleet of ships, their wives, children, and kin, plus all their posisions--sailed up the Delaware into the port of Philadelphia. When they tried to navigate the Schuylkill, they had to leave the larger ships and use smaller boats. It is here they scattered in many directions, especially in Chester and Montgomery counties.

"It was Whitpain's good fortune to attract Peter and his wife, Sidonia Levering, with nine boys and three girls (3rd generation in this country). Is it so amazing that som any DeHaven names are in Whitpain's history?..."
