Notes for Jacob P. SIXBY

Notes for Jacob P. SIXBY

Jacob is tentatively placed as a child of John Sixby. No information for John has been uncovered in the available Canadian records, so based on the spelling of Jacob's surname, where he lived, and the names of some of his children it strongly suggests that Jacob was a grandchild to Col. Garret Sixby.
