Wo7Jacob Workman born: about 1740 Somerset Co NJ
Died: Bourbon Co KY
Buried:

Married: ?1778Elizabeth Wyckoff

Jacob Workman and Elizabeth Wyckoff had issue:

It is generally believed that Jacob married 1770-72, however, it was probably not until after his revolutionary service, or about 1778, that he married Elizabeth Wyckoff (born 1755-8 in New Jersey; died in 1823-4 in Bourbon Co Ky. Her two brothers, John and Jacob Wyckoff followed the Workman move from New Jersey to Maryland and from there to Kentucky.) 'The first child of Jacob and Elizabeth was born in New Jersey and then the young family went to Allegany Co. Maryland where the rest of the children were born and raised.

It is generally believed that Jacob married 1770-72, however, it was probably not until after his revolutionary service, or about 1778, that he married.

Jacob's Revolutionary service was rewarded by the grant of title Lo Military Lot No. 3660, Fort Cumberland, Maryland, containing fifty acres of land, title to which was granted in the April Assembly of 1781. Military Lot No. 3659 was awarded at the same tlme to Andrew Workman7. Andrew, however, neglected to pay the amount submitted by law and continued vacancy of the tract gave Jacob the right to buy this fi2   acres which he joined to the other property to become a tract which he named "Brotherly Love." Jacob received patent for this tract of land 25 May 1801 having paid all fees.
In all there were four tracts of land in Allegany County, Maryland, that were patented under Workman titles. "Workman's  Farm" owned originally by Isaac Workman15, patented in 1838 by the Boston New York Coal Company. The story is told in the Isaac Workman family that "Nee" Workman (probably Cornelius) one of three brothers who enme to or from New Jersey, settled near this Workman Farm in Allegany Co., Md., in 1735. Nee established a farm of 1700 acres in this wilderness which he called "Workman's Settlement." When the country began to he more thickly settled, Nee, who was a solitary sort of man and loved to fish and hunt and meditate, sold his holdings for twenty-five cents an acre and moved on where the country would be less congested. At least part of this farm was later owned by Isaac Workman Jr.
Of the other tracts, "Workman's Desire" was owned originally by John Workman and later came into the possession of Isaac Workman. "Workman's Fortune" and "Workman's Sugar Camp" were both owned by ,Jacob Workman.
Jacob Workman with John Wyckoff and Jacob Wyckoff (brothers of Jacob's wife) were listed in the Kentucky Records (by Ardery) as “revolutionary soldiers who died citizens of Bourbon Co., Ky."

About the year 1812 Jacob Workrnan sold his extensive holdings in Maryland and moved with his family to Bourbon Co., Kentucky. There he soon acquired a great deal of property and was well known about the countryside for his wisdom and daring. In his later years a severe affliction, the shaking palsy, caused him a great deal of suffer¬ing. He died on his home farm surrounded by his family and a host of friends. He was buried in his own cemetery on the banks of a beautiful river. It was recorded in the Bourbon County records that the funeral of Jacob Workman was the largest ever held in Bourbon County up to that time. He belonged to the German Baptist Church, more commonly known as Tunkers or Dunkards.

Isaac was a man of good moral character and steady habits; quite industrious, but poor because he moved from place to place, not remaining in one place long at a time.
