Keziah was also used as a female first name in the United States in the nineteenth century. For example, Keziah Brevard ran a plantation in South Carolina in the 1850s and 60s; Keziah Brower lived on farms near Madison, Wisconsin and Vermillion, Dakota Territory (now South Dakota) in the 1850s, 60s, and 70s. H. P. Lovecraft's The Dreams in the Witch House feature a character named Keziah Mason. The modern name Keisha is derived from this name. (en)
