The preponderance of evidence is that Abraham was buried in Haverhill however there is no record. But when you review the facts it is near certain that he and Jemima are buried in unmarked graves at the Pentucket Cemetery Haverhill MA.
Per Haverhill VRs Abraham married Jemima Davis on 14 Mar 1714 in Haverhill. Jemima's family had lived in Haverhill for generations and her G grandfather was one of its founders. When Abraham died in about 1724 it would have been up to Jemima where he was buried and the family cemetery was the Pentucket. Then 13 years later when Abrahams son Benjamin died she buried him in Pentucket, likely next to his father. His stone can be seen.
Jemima then married Dr. James Holgate and they had six children four died from the throat distemper plague that hit Haverhill in 1737 and all are buried at Pentucket Cemetery and their tombstones are all in the same area and can be seen at the cemetery. Tombstones for Abraham, Jemima and Dr. Holgate have never been found but it would be unthinkable that Jemima Abraham and Dr Holgate were not buried with their children in the family plot. It is likely that their stones being taller fell over as many others have in that cemetery and are now a few inches below ground level. As to Abraham's first wife Mary, Abraham would have seen to her burial so not at all sure about her.∼September 24, 1685, in Kent, England. This was found on his marriage certificate. Also his death date was April 19, 1746.
