Jeremiah Bacon, John M. Hunt and Abigail (his wife), Jane Bacon to John Bacon for 137 3/4 acresRobert Wells writes:
--shows the sale of land by Jeremiah Bacon, Jane Bacon and Abigail Hunt (formerly Bacon) to John Bacon in 1853. This reflects the sale of these three siblings of their share of their father's estate to another brother John Bacon. Not only does this prove Abigail's identity, but it confirms that Jeremiah was indeed a son of John Bacon and Leah Jackson, parents of these parties and whose marriage was recorded in Washington Co. in 1820. I suspect that this sale took place soon after Leah's death. Please note that Leah Jackson's husband was JOHN Bacon and not Jonathan Bacon as is sometimes stated, which has resulted in some confusion! Please also bear in mind that brother Elijah Bacon was still living at this time, but evidently decided not to sell his share of his father's estate to his brother John.
