George Washington is a son of Jacob I and Delitha. George died in Catawba County which was just east of where Jacob was from in Burke county. Jacob lived in Icard,Burke and later moved to Caldwell county. Catawba county is south of Caldwell County. We cant find Jacob's grave. We think he may be buried without a headstone.Our Jacob is Jacob 'I" Hood. He is listed on a few census with his initial. We think the I might stand for Isaac. Right now Jacob is an "Alien" with no proof of parents or siblings and no reason why our Y DNA markers match to others of the surname Gallagher. We have had both Jacob's son Thomas's line and Jacob's son Sidney (my line) DNA test and they match. Have you Y-DNA tested? you should match Sidney's and Thomas's lines on Y-DNA if you tested.
