  • Notes 
    • Jacob Herp's land was surveyed at 50 acres on May 15, 1759 in Berks Co., Pennsylvania. Brother Abraham's land was surveyed at 25 acres on Feb. 26, 1759 in Berks Co., PA also. In all he owned 118 acres in District Township, Berks Co., Pennia. Jacob as well as most if not all of his sons were cordwainers by trade. (C-395, 431)

      Clues about his children's lives come from his son, Frederick Harp or Herb, who applied for pension for his Revolutionary War Service on Jan. 8, 1833 in Luzerne Co., Huntington Twp., Pennsylvania. He was 76 at the time. He enlisted in the war in Berks County, Pennsylvania in 1777 for seventeen months. He served part of this time under Lafayette. He was born in East District Twp., Berks Co., PA in 1756. He did not know the exact date, but suspected the Church books in East District might have it. In 1810 he moved to Columbia Co., Pennsylvania and then to Huntington, Luzern Co., Pennsylvania in 1814. He died two weeks after his final move to Montgomery Co., Ohio on Nov. 21, 1833. (C-547)

      A Petrus and Henry Harp were living in Rochester Co., NY as early as 1757 when they were serving in the Indian Wars there that would be of a peerage to possibly be brothers or relatives of this Jacob Harp. (C-310) There is a Joseph Harp who was in the Revolutionary War in North Carolina that was born about 1752 that might possibly be the eldest child of Jacob Harp. (EL)
