- "A German Catholic who lived in French province of Lorraine when it was under German rule. He emigrated to Canada, then was exiled to Maryland along with Acadian friends. In 1769, the schooner Britannia left Maryland with 56 Germans, 32 Acadians and 12 British, headed for Louisiana. As the schooner reached the Louisiana Coast, there was a dense fog. An east wind blew the ship off course and onto the Texas coast. After a six-month wait in Texas, the newcomers traveled overland to Natchitoches. Jacob went to St. John Parish, later settled in Opelousas." -Karen Theriot Reader
