KENT Researchers - I am desperately looking for someone who has information on a Jacob KENT. Jacob was born in HOLLAND and came to Maryland as a child. He was employed for General Washington as a teamster during the Revolution. During the war of 1812 acted as a scout working as an independant under General Hull so does not show on the list of soldiers at the surrender of Detroit. he "..won many praises from the officers and soldiers for courage displayed on many a battlefield." He owned most if not all of the cattle in the Western States during that time, and fresh meat being scarce, sold all of his cattle to Congress. With this money, that he received four years after the sale, he moved to Canada and bought a large tract of land. He remained there until 1829, when he settled in Lodi Twp, Washtenaw County, Michigan, where he lived until his death. Jacob had a son, also Jacob who was boon in Westmoreland, Pennsylvania. Any information would be appreciated. Thanks.
