General Notes: Husband - Jacob Weaver


He enlisted in the Colonial army during the struggle for independence, and made an excellent record for courage and discretion. On one occasion he was appointed to carry some important dispatches to General Washington, to whom he gave them personally, and he narrowly escaped capture by the British while on this mission.
