Note: Some sources incorrectly give Jacob's death year as 1841 and his calculated birth year as 1785. This resulted from a misreading of Jacob's faded gravestone, mistaking '1846' for '1841.' Since it is known that Jacob was 55 years and 10 months old when he died and his estate records show he died in 1846 his birth year was therefore 1790, not 1785.
