I have some similar and some different info on these Jacobs. My husband's mother was a Jacobs born in Howard Co.AR.

I have Thomas L. Jacobs b. circa 1765 married Sarah English on 4-12-1790 in Madison County, KY. They had John Jacobs b. 1797KY, Martha Patsy Jacobs 1802 KY, and English Calvin Jacobs b. 1812Ky.

John Jacobs married a Nancy?
Martha m. Elijah Calvin Baker
English Calvin m. Mary Wingfield

What I have different is that John and Wingfield Jacobs are the children of John Jacobs and Jane Wingfield m. 5-9-1833 in Hempstead Co., AR.

From court records of one Abner Thornton who sued NATHANIEL JACOBS dec'd and his heirs. Nancy Jacobs (widow)
John Jacobs & Jane Wingfield Jacobs (she later married a Jacob Brinley and went to TX) and her children John and Wingfield. Lawsuit states Abner Thornton (who was married to a Mary Jacobs - origin unknown) gave Nathaniel Jacobs money to buy land and Nathaniel admitted before his death that he put the land in his own name.

Question: Was the John who married Jane Wingfield the son of Thomas L. Jacobs and Sarah English OR was he the son of Nathaniel Jacobs who was married to a Nancy? Were Thomas L. and Nathaniel same man? I found Nathaniel born circa 1780 SC on 1800 census in Spartenburg, SC and then in Logan County, KY on N. border of TN. I haven't found any Thomas L. Jacobs in primary records except for the marriage certificatet in Madison Co., KY. to Sarah English.

Can you straighten me out on this? Nan Brandon
