• Notes

  It is not certain that this is the Jacob HARNISH who marries Sarah CONRAD. But the spouse has to be a St. Margaret's Bay HARNISH who bears the name James or Jacob (he usually appears as Jacob), who is the right age, who is in the right place at the right time, and who is not not otherwise accounted for as someone's husband. At the moment, that trail appears to lead only to James Jacob. [Bob H] It is not certain that this is the Jacob HARNISH who marries Sarah CONRAD.
