    He built a two-story log house with the assistance of his father, located one mile north of Strasburg, Pennsylvania, on the tract which was to be in his inheritance at the time of his father's death. But dying in 1735 before it's completion, his father finished the building, and thus its remains are the only tangible work left of Isaac LeFevre.

    It is believed that Abraham is the first to be buried in the LeFevre Cemetery but there is no marker to that effect. It contains the remains of 6 generations of LeFevre's, located a quarter mile from the big brick house built by Isaac's great grandson George LeFevre.
