Everything seems to point to that conclusion. These families (Martin, Jacobs, and Redding) moved from Berkeley and Hampshire Counties (now W. Va.) to Woodford Co., and from there to Shelby Co., Ky., and on to Indiana in 1820, I think.' This quotation is from a letter dated 9 Apr., 1935, to Mrs. Hazel Jacobs Achenbach from Miss Ruth Cralle, a copy of which is in my possession. Samuel Jacobs m. (2nd) Lydia Groves. Although he had children by both marriages, this genealogy is concerned only with those of the first marriage. Samuel and Elizabeth (Martin) Jacobs had six children who reached maturity: Bennett m. Nancy Watts. James m. Mary (Polly) Watts. Milburn m. Catherine Bosworth. Elizabeth m. William K. Cralle. Martin m. (1st) Julia Daggett; m. (2nd) Louise South. Phoebe m. Moses Crim. Three of the above sons, Bennett, James, and Martin, participated in the War of 1812." from "David Glassburn - Virginia Pioneer" by Oma Glasburn Robinson 1964, page 229
