He was a tavern-keeper. Isaac was one of the more colourful characters in the family. He owned a tavern on the Old King's Highway between Schenectady and Albany, in the heart of the Albany Pine Bush. The area was notorious as a lair for fur smugglers, brigands and, during the Revolution, Tory sympathizers. Isaac was no exception. His tavern was a popular meeting place for Loyalists, and his son (or possibly his brother) Jacob, also a tavenkeeper on the road, managed to get himself arrested for his resistance to the Rebel cause. Isaac's tavern had always had a less than savoury reputation. Rumours flourished of imprudent guests being robbed and murdered in the night, their bodies never to be found. In fact, several human skeletons have been found buried in nearby sand dunes! A more conventional graveyard still exists in the woods behind the tavern site, where Isaac, his wife, son and grandson are buried. The oldest stone belongs to Maria Wyngaard, wife of Isaac J. Truax, and is dated May 10th, 1802. |

Jacob Truax was also known as Jacob Y Truax. He served in 1776 as Pvt. in Col. Jacob Lansing's Regiment. Jacob Truax is usually assumed to be the one referred to in the Schenectady Committee of Conspiracies as saying he was 'no Tore but a man for the King', but since that Jacob had the middle name Isaacse, this may refer to the son of Isaac Jacob and not his brother - see Chapter 7. There is also some confusion between the two Jacobs in the oral history of the family of George Truax of Cornwall, provided by Bev Truax. Her family claims that the Jacob who married Catherine Dochsteder was the son of Isaac J. We know from Isaac J's will that this Jacob had children named Jacob, Magdalen, John and George, which would correspond with Jacob and Catherine's children if we assume that Maria's middle name was Magdalen (not uncommon). Could it be that this was wrong all along? If so, which Jacob died in 1789 on Lake Erie? Which one was arrested by the Committee, and which one served in Lansing's Regiment? This needs to be resolved. |
