      Notes for JACOB HOOVER:

      In "Illustrated Souvenir History of Philipsburg, Pennsylvania" Printed by Grit Publishing Company copyright. 1909, by Grit Publishing Co., there is a map of Philipsburg in 1813. The map says "Copy of Map Made by Geo. Schultz" Schultz was one of the first 12 settlers in Philipsburg. In the "Guide for Map on Preceding Page" on page 5, the following appears; Item 10. Dr. Bergman's house, occupied by Jacob Hoover. On page 8 of same publication, both George Hoover and Martin Hoover are mentioned in the book of accounts of a store ledger dated April 1797.

      Linn's History shows John and Jacob Hoover living in Boggs Township, Centre County, in 1815. About 1810, Jacob married Jane Boggs, daughter of Robert Boggs, Centre County. Robert Boggs was born in 1741 in New Castle county, Delaware, and was the son of William Boggs. Jane Boggs died in 1831. Jacob and Jane are buried in the Bradford Cemetery, Bradford Township, Clearfield County.

      Jacob and Jane Hoover had eight children and are first listed in the 1820 Census of Clearfield County, Lawrence Township.

      Jacob (1779-1866) and Jane Boggs (?-1831) had the following children: William (1812-1885) married Elizabeth Murry (1814-1903); Hannah (1812-?) married Mr. Soult (Sault); George (1813-?) married Elizabeth; Sarah (Sallie) (1814-?) married John Peters; Rebecca (1815-?0 married Daniel Maines; Mary E.
