Notes

3 ii. Jacob "Jake" MCKISSICK(8) (9)(10) was born on 17 Mar 1811 in Buncome County, North Carolina. (11) He was a Farmer in 1850 in Fremont County, Iowa. He died on 22 Sep 1900 in Reno, Washoe, Nevada.(12) (13) He died while he was on a business trip in Reno, Nevada. In the last few days he was listed as insane & incompetent . When quite small Jacob moved to Tennessee, where he remained until 1817, when he moved to Saline county, Missouri, remaining until 1830. He then went to Clinton county and then to Platt county, but came to Fremont county, Iowa in 1840. In the spring of 1854 he went to California & Nevada. He was the first justice of the peace in Fremont county, having been elected in 1841. He owned a large amount of land there and in Missouri, and was a heavy dealer in cattle on the Pacific coast. He built the first building in Hamburg, Iowa. He built the McKissick House Hotel, which later was renamed the Loyal Hotel. He settled in Long Valley, Lassen, California. Jacob ran a sawmill at McKissick Grove. He commissioned the first building and plated the town of what is now Hamburg. The post office in Sacramento City was in the store of J.T. Davis and he served as postmaster. The mail was carried from the town of Farmer's Station, across the line in Iowa. The packing house was similar to the one in Sonora. The hogs were killed and dressed and the meat was packed in barrels of salt and shipped down river. The business was discontinued during the hot summer months because of the loss of meat. The packing house was owned and operated by Jacob. When the town decayed the plant was move to Hamburg, Ions. In the book "The First One Hundred Year" 1858-1958, it was written on page 15. the following: In the first settlement of McKissick's grove, the McKissick brothers claimed a large part of the grove. John W. Allen settled on a part of the land claimed by the McKissicks, and built him a cabin thereon. The first night the cabin was occupied a rifle ball was shot through the cabin window. Allen concluded that the ball was intended for him. He imagined that Jacob McKissick was the would-be assassin, and so loading his rifle he started in search of him. Allen met his intended victim, who, wholly unexpecting such a visit, was unarmed and helpless. Allen called out to McKissick to prepare for death, telling him why he was about to kill him. McKissick realized his position, and approached Allen saying: "Mr. Allen, you may shoot me, but I won't die with a lie in my mouth. I am not that kind of man." Something in McKissick's manner and conduct convinced Allen, that he (McKissick) was speaking the truth, and the two men were soon clasping hands in firm friendship and talking it over. Mr. Allen died in Arkansas in the Civil War and was buried in the McKissick's grove graveyard. Jacob was said to have lived in Lassen County, California about 1868. He appears to have traveled back and forth from Iowa to California. This could have be to move cattle to and from market. Although he was in California June 8, 1880, at which time he bought land there. On June 8, 1880 he sold some of his land in Fremont County, Iowa, to Geo. and Herbert Slaughter, for the some of $550.00. Because he was living in California it was signed by Jacob relinquishes his rights on May, 14, 1880 but the deed was not filed till June 8. At the time of his death he worth as about $100,000.00.

Hi Hank,

Yes, James, Sr. was their father and Christianna Linnington was their mother. His father was Dr. John James Jameson. I'll have to get my Jameson file out, and clue you in on as much as possible. The Jameson's were from NC. They settled in GA for awhile and some settled in AL. Then they moved to FL. I have a whole lot of things going on right now. Please do not lose patience with me. I will not resent being reminded. Take care and glad to know you.

Sincerely, Wanda

PS James and B. J. Jameson, his wife, are buried in the OLD Elim Cemetery near Ft. White, FL. Their graves are where the old log church stood, but it is now private property.

From the records I have, it appears that your John was in Twiggs Co., GA in the early 1800's, as was George, James, William L., Duke K., Nathaniel and David James. Some of them went to Alabama for a few years: Wm. L(ancaster),& Duke K. All of the Jameson boys were in Capt. Jefferson's District in Twiggs Co., GA in 1818.
