The record on Jacob and Jemima's descendants is a bit cloudy.  
Jacob's will names wife Polly and children Matthias, Martin, 
Elizabeth Rawling, Henry, and Julius.  However, a lawsuit was 
brought by other children regarding the estate settlement.  This 
suit named Henry, Ephraim, Samuel and Ann Bingham, William G. and 
Mary Bingham, Christopher, and Simeon.


       1810 - Jacob is listed in the Rutherford Co., TN, census. 
They lived near "Hoover's Gap".  [1]

       1818 - Jacob Hoover is in debt to the estate of Matthias 
Broyles in the amount of $73.00  [1]

24 May 1843 - Jacob Hoover signed a will bequeathing slaves to 
his children, etc.  [3]3:65

27 Oct 1845 - Suit is brought by relatives regarding Jacob's 
will.  They ask the court to declare the will to be the last will 
and testament as far as personal property is concerned, but not 
with respect to real estate.  [3]3:65  It would therefore seem 
that Jacob had neglected to name all heirs in his will.
