  1. 1.  Jacob Hittle was born in Aug 1760 in Northampton Co, Pennsylvania; was christened on 24 Aug 1760 in Western Salisbury Ch, Northampton Co, Pennsylvania; died in 1835 in Flint Hill, Culpeper Co, Virginia.

    Notes:

    Jacob served in the Revolutionary War, in Capt. Jacob Wagoners Company, Ist Battalion, Northhampton Cty. Militia. There is also a record (Penn St. Archives), that he substituted for George Hittle, serving in the 4th
    Battalion, under a Capt. Wagener, as a 7th class. Apparently he went to Virginia in his early life. North of Flint Hill Virginia, about a mile or two, there is a state road sign when you come to the bridge, thats reads "Hittle Mill Stream". To the west side of the bridge, on the south bank, stands the Hittle Mill, also known as "the Germans Mill". Up until 3 or 4 years ago, the old log home was standing beside it but has been torn down now. Across the road, also on the south bank, was a two story building known as Hittle's Tavern. Jacob took care of soldiers during the War of 1812 here, as is witnessed by letters or his petition for relief for a distillery tax in the congressional records. Letters indicate that he had purchased a distillery, and the man he hired to run it was
    conscripted to fight in the war, and Jacob wanted the tax he had paid, refunded to him. His claim was denied. The letters written from his neighbors in about 1816 indicate that Jacob was a good citizen (taking care of the soldiers, etc.)

    A few years ago, a Mr. Kummili purchased the land where the tavern stood, took it apart, and rebuilt it about a mile or two away. He uses it for his guest house, having spent about $250,000 building it.

    Some researchers believe that Jacob was married 3 times, 1st Mary, 2nd Susanna, and then Rachel. As of 1-10-94, this is not proven, nor his final resting place.
