Jabez Stump was the male hedgehog husband of Rosyqueen and the father of Jube and ten daughters. He was descendant of Josh Stump whose family lived on the Great South Plateau for many generations.

When his son was taken by Slagar the Cruel, Jabez joined Matthias, Basil Stag Hare, Jess Squirrel, and their companions to pursue the fox.

After Slagar was defeated, Jabez and his family moved to Redwall Abbey, where he helped Ambrose Spike in the cellars. The Stump family thereafter became known for being cellarkeepers.

Jabez was the grandfather of Higgle Stump, head Kitchen Friar, and his brother Cellarkeeper Furlo Stump.
