Naomah (or Naamah) was the daughter of Joseph Dean and Sarah Baker of Dedham, Mass. She was married in Dedham on 14 May 1793 to Daniel Draper, the son of John Draper and Abigail Cheney of Dedham. Her husband built a house at High Rock Farm in West Dedham, and this is where the family resided and where Naomah spent the remainder of her life. She and Daniel had six children.
While the following vital records show that Naomah is buried in this cemetery, she is not buried in the same four-grave plot as her husband. He is buried in the plot with his son Willard and two grandsons. Naamah is likely buried nearby.
