The Jacob who was living in Nassau County is likely Cornelius' son who married Marjory Simmons ca1845...Their son Henry J. (b ca1826FL) was married to a Martha. As far as I know, Cornelius had no son named James, however our Abraham and Mercy did, and he was born in 1808...He is the one Chubb says was scalpped...He had older brothers in that part of FL...John, Abraham, Jr., Joshua, and several cousins from the Martin side and Felix Sr's. descendants. I know that some of the Pacifist in SC ran over to the Caribbean Is. when the War started, so some might have come back from Bermuda...but they lost all their lands if they did... >From: <bzb@houston.rr.com> >Reply-To: GEIGER-L@rootsweb.com >To: GEIGER-L@rootsweb.com >Subject: Re: [GEIGER] James Geiger >Date: Mon, 8 Mar 2004 12:41:35 -0600 > >Hey, Gerry, I just saw something interesting: there's a J.
