Biography
John Jared is a DAR Patriot Ancestor, A061852.
John Jared lived in Appalachia. See Appalachia Project.
Wagonmaker and storekeeper. Married Hannah Whitacre August 8, 1757, Falls, Wyoming, PA. Married Rachel Palmer August 23, 1767, near Taylors Mill, Loudoun, VA
John and Hannah began their life together in a Quaker Colony called "Falls Monthly Meeting" in Bucks Co. PA. They soon moved to Hunterdon Co. NJ where Hannah's parents, also Quakers lived. Later after they had 2 little boys, they moved to Loudoun Co. VA. John was a wagon maker and Revolutionary War veteran. When the War for Independence came he was torn between the Quaker learnings and his duty to home and country. The peaceful Quaker religion allowed no participation in war for any reason. When the Jared home was threatened, John and his two oldest sons, William and Joseph, marched away to defend it. He also kept an account book which he used in his family business to record his family history. There is one page in the account book of John Jared that is devoted to transactions with his son William. It is interesting in that it establishes the Revolutionary War service of both William and John and gives exact time of removal of the Jared family from Loudoun to Bedford Co., VA. The entries read:
"In yr. 1781 by work done by him (William) at home- I went to camp"
In 1782 "By tending sawmills for and Mr. Neilson"
"By guarding the prisoners at Winchester"
It was in 1782 when Cornwallis' Army was held prisoner in Virginia.
April 13, 1785, William helped his father with the wagon to Bedford County. William spent the spring months moving to their newly established home and preparing it for habitation. In June he returned with John to Loudoun County and "helped move the family out".
