Biography

Jacob died following an attempted surgery by Dr. Walter BRASHEAR of Bardstown to remove a bladder stone which weighed nearly a half pound. It had made Jacob suffer for many months, such that he wished to either die or have it successfully removed. It proved too large (a 6 inch x 7.5 inch oval) to be grasped by medical instruments.

His will was written on 20 Jul 1812, presumably immediately before the surgery, and probated in August 1812 [pg. 65, Nelson Co. Will Book C]. His will listed his "Beloved wife, Abigail," his three sons John, Jacob, and Philip, and his seven daughters Mary, Ann, Jane, Phebe, Elizabeth, Abigail, and Mahala. It also mentioned his mother, who was living with him. Among the property he left was land in Hardin County. His will was witnessed by Lewis B. WITT, John P. BLANDFORD and Martha LUDWICK The executors were wife Abigail and William DAVIS. Abigail was last found, living in Nelson Co., on the 1850 Census.
