Note: According to descendant, Barbara Stockwell, Jacob did not serve in the PA troops.  Instead, he served in SC, going into one skirmish where he was wounded.  He went home to recuperate and then into another couple of battles and was wounded again.  He returned home crippled, but denied a pension later because he not served the required 60 days.  He was very young, age 17, when he enlisted in 1781.  Jacob lived to be 89 years old and  is buried in Barker Cemetery, Hamilton Co., IL.  (This taken from official records).
