General Notes: Husband - Jacob Leman


He was a farmer near the city of Lancaster, Pennsylvania, and a brewer. He served in the company of Pequea Rangers during the Revolutionary war, and his high sense of honor forbade him to accept a pension for his services, because he considered this sum intended for the soldiers and their families who were in pecuniary need, and not for those who were in comfortable circumstances. He succeeded to his father's homestead in Paradise township by will, which was occupied afterwards by his younger brother, and he also dropped the letter "a" from the original name "Leaman."
