| The Legend of "Ol Jakob" has never been proven. Many researchers have spent decades and endless hours trying to find proof of his immigration. For years it was originally believed He was listed as a Hessian Soldier that was taken prisoner of war in 1777. Was ransomed from prosoner of war in 1778.In 1781 he was repatriated to Hesse Germany and 1782 separated frommilitary in Europe. However this was a Jakob Uebelshausser.WE HAVE SINCE PROVED THIS THEORY TO BE INACCURATE!!!This name never appears again in the US. Jacob Evelsheimer appears in Tax rolls beginning in 1779, Exeter Twp.,Berks Co.,PA.Then again in Rockingham Co,VA, where the name appears Evelsheiser and Evilsizer, both. This tree combines the efforts of all of the researchers to prove his descendants. Other lines I am researching not appearing in this tree are BARNES,BOARD,BAYNES,BURTON, COMER,BYRN,DYE, FOUTS, FUTRELLFITE,GRIFFITH,GARLAND,HAM, HUFF,LIPPENCOTT,MARTIN, NANCE,NICHOLS,NUCKOLS,PERRY,SCHUYLER,STALLIONS,SHEELY,VAN SCHLICTENHORST, VAN DUSEN |
