ON THE TRAIL OF THE OUTLAW DOANS
Located on Tohickon Creek,
this cave was a favorite hiding place of the Doan gang. Searching for
food, it was from here that outlaw leader Moses Doan left on the fateful
morning of August 28, 1783, to meet his death at the hands of Robert Gibson.
The bodies of outlaws Abraham
and Levi Doan were buried outside the cemetery walls at Plumstead Meeting.
The leaders of the meetinghouse ruled the cousins did not merit burial
in sanctified ground.
