Notes for JOHN JARED:
John and Hannah began their life together in a Quaker Colony called
"Falls Monthly Meeting," in Bucks Co. PA. They soon moved to Hunterdon
Co. New Jersey were Hannah's parents, also Quakers. lived. Later
after they had 2 little boys they moved to Loudoun Co. VA.
John was a wagon maker and Rev. War Vertran. When the War for
Independence came, he was torn between the Quaker learnings and his duty
to home and country . The peaeful Quaker religion allowed no participation
in war for any reason. When the Jared home was thereatened John and
this two oldest sons, William and Joseph, marched away to defend it.
He also kept an account book, which he used in his family business, to
record his family history. There is one page in the account book
of John Jared that is devoted to transactions with his son, William.
It is interesting in that it establishes the Revolutionary War service
of both William and John and gives exact time of removal of the Jared family
from Loudoun to Bedford Co., VA. the entries read:
"In yr. 1781by work done by him (William) at home - I went to
camp"
In 1782 "By tending sawmills for me and Mr. Neilson"
"By guarding the prisoners at Winchester."
It was in 1782 when Cornwallis' Army was held prisoner in Virginia.
April 13, 1785 William helped his father with the wagon to Bedford County. William spent the spring months moving to their newly established home and preparing it for habitation. In June he returned with John to Loudoun county and "helped move the family out."
