Updated Jeremiah Bacon family information from Robert Wells
  1. 2009 Old Jeremiah Bacon neve moved to Tennessee. He is shown in Berks Co., Pennsylvania in the 1790 census and in a 1796 deed also in Berks Co.
  2. Jeremiah deeds his four tracts of land (all originating at different times - I've managed to follow all of these pieces up) to his son Henry Bacon. Deed Book 15, page 348.
  3. The wonderful tax lists for Berks Co., PA show Jeremiah Bacon living adjacent to each of his many sons as each of them turned 21, helping to establish approximate ages for each of them.
  4. In 1800 Jeremiah was in Henry's household (Berks Co., Maiden Creek Township p.626), but had evidently died by 1810.
  5. Henry never moved to Tennessee and nor did his brothers Jeremiah Jr. and Thomas.
