Jacob was born 15 jan 1773 in PA or VA.He married Esther Croberger, d/o George & Mary Croberger (various spellings).They had 13 children, the first 12 born between 1800 and 1820 in VA and the youngest in 1823 in Switzerland Co, IN.They were living in Scott Co, VA in 1820.There are land records showing that Jacob bought and sold land in Scott, VA, Sullivan, TN and Hawkins, TN (they all border each other) in the early 1800s.Esther's parents lived in VA, but were in Hawkins Co, TN from at least 1820.I have 15 jul 1807 for their son George's DOB, but no additional information on him.
I have been trying for some time to tie Jacob to my husband's ancestor, William Severs, @1770-1817.He left children in Wythe Co, VA when he died in 1817, but his second wife and her children were living in Scott Co, VA by 1830.William also had ties to Hawkins Co.William and Jacob both had children named William, Jeremiah, Henry, Joseph, John, Elizabeth, and Susannah (among others).Coincidence????
You can probably find quite a bit on Jacob's family on the internet by searching under Jacob with his DOB.
Happy hunting!
