Jobe was born in April 1784 in Bedford, Virginia. He is the son of Isham Meador and Obedience Bradshaw. A death date of 2 August 1860 is found in online family trees, but no source is given. It is certain that he is living in Jackson County, Tennessee on 1 June 1860 and has not been found in records after that date.[1]

Y-chromosome DNA test-takers in his direct paternal line on WikiTree:
Job Meador and his wife Milly were alive and well at the time of the 1860 census for Jackson Co., TN. Not sure which Job Meador may have died in Macon Co in 1856, but it wasn't Job the son of Isham and Biddy.
