Jacob Lake B. 1776 NY, looking for more ancestors
By Melanie Odeh February 26, 2012 at 10:12:23

Looking for any information about Jacob Lake, born 1776, New York. He
married Hannah born 1778, NY. At one point, according to the 1830 Census,
they lived in Murray, Orleans County, NY. They had the following children:

John L. Lake, Brownell Lake, Napoleon Boneparte Lake, Lamont Lake, Mortimer
Colin Lake. I'm not sure what happened to all the kids, but Napoleon and
Mortimer came to Michigan. Both died in Michigan. I believe Mortimer came
to Michigan later in life.

It would be nice to know who Jacob's parents were and where he descended
from, also Hannah's family as well. The 1830 Census Murray, Orleans County,
NY, mentions other Lake names, these include the name Asa Lake, James Lake,
John Lake, and John Lake. Could these people be Jacob's relatives?

Any information would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

I discovered some information today about Jacob Lake. He was born 15
Feb. 1776 Rensselaer Co., N.Y. He had a sister named Maria, born 14 Jun
1774 Rensselaer Co. NY. Their father's name was Nicholas Lake, who was
married twice. Jacob and Maria's mother is Nicholas' first wife.

Also, he had more children with his second wife.

This is only a possible match for Jacob Lake B. 1776, maybe it is him
maybe not!

Yes, I also have Nicholas Jr. (son of Nicholas Sr. and Mary Johnson or
Janszen) as Jacob's father, and Mary or Marytje Snyder as his mother.
