Linda, He probably was born around 1735-1740. I have no idea who his wife was.. Have not been able to find her name. When he was in S.C., there was a mention of Jacob Myers and his wife. When he died in Jackson Co., Ga., around 1808, there was no mention of a surviing wife. However, I have found one item that sounds like Margaret may have been his wife's name. I was reading some notes, and they mentioned Margaret Myers giving something to her beloved daughter ___________Roberson. Jacob's son Abraham marries a Sarah Roberson; so, it is possible that one of his daughter married a Roberson. When he died and his possessions were disposed of there was a Male Roberson that signed along with Abraham Myers. Bobbye
