Notes

Jacob is buried in the Glades Lebanon Baptist Church Cemetery, just outside of Gatlinburg, Tennessee.

Martha and Jacob gave the land for the Lebanon Baptist Church in the Glades. They left a joint will which is recorded in Will Book I, page 247, Sevier County Courthouse. Their daughter, Sophia Ownby, and her son, Samuel, are mentioned in it. The will was probated in April 1878.
