This is the last one that I am adding today. However, I will add Sarah Jane Mallow at a later time.....
Again, I feel this one should be posted because of the connection with the Mallows.
JACOB BEAR, JR.

Jacob Kisling's grandson said Jacob was rather low in stature, inclined to be corpulent, had blue eyes and very fair complexion.
Jacob Bear also appears in the DAR index as a patriot. According to DAR, patriots donated supplies such as food, horses and wagons to the cause of the American Revolution.
Adam Miller fought in the French and Indian War.
This is all for today. I have been on here for hours!! Hope you enjoy!
Remember, if there is anything to add or correct, feel free to do so. This helps our documentation.
Sincerely,
Etta Skaggs Reid
(My line is through George Mallow, Michael Mallow, Jacob Mallow, Barnabas Mallow, Sarah Jane Mallow married to Thomas Jefferson Skaggs. Thomas comes from the line of famous Skaggs Longhunters of Kentucky! I will list Sarah's line another day....)
