Jacob Kimball, Jr.

1774, he was one of the orginial Wallenpaupack settlers from CT to remove to PA. This settlement had orginated from a tract of land surveyed 14 Oct 1751 "for the use of the propietaries of PA," and was called Wallenpaupack Manor. 21 Feb 1793, this manor was conveyed to Hon. James WILSON, who gave a mortgage to John PENN, the Elder, and John PENN, the younger, the vendors. In 1804 the mortgage was foreclosed, and Samuel SITGRAVES of Easton purchased the land in trust for the PENN heirs. All of the Wallenpaupack Settlement was of this manor, and the first valid titles obtained by these settlers were from the SITGRAVES. At the time Jacob and the other CT families had settled along Paupack Creek, none had legal claim to the land. They had surveyed and laid out carefully defined boundaries, which became fixed and are those by which the lots are known to this day They may well have thought, as there was some form of claim, that this was a part of the state of CT. In any case, they were not assessed by any PA authority until Wayne Co.(now Pike), was set off in 1798. The settlement was isolated, and in a well traveled Indian area, as it was used by the Indians to trace from Cochecton to the Wyoming Valley area, not a healthy place to be located as the discovered. Notified of the Battle of Wyoming in 1778, the settlement was evacuated to the safer shores of the Delaware River. They returned again in 1782, and Jacob Kimble (as he and his descendants have always used this spelling of this name), and his son Abel Kimble, built the first grist mill on Kimble's Brook. Jacob was a farmer and a lumberman. He and Esther had 13 children.

Wayne Independent Centennial Issue: Meanwhile, settlers had squatted near Indian Orchard, and by the close of the Revolutionary War, Jacob Kimble and his sons, Abel and Walter, lived on the old Indian campgrounds. After the Wyoming massacre of July, 1776, Mohawk Indians captured Reuben Jones, Jasper Parish, Stephen Parish, and Stephen Kimble, a nephew or son of Jacob Kimble, near Paupack Eddy (Hawley). Some accounts say the men were on their way to warn Indian Orchard settlers of the massacre when they were captured. An account by Josephine Lassley in 1925, a grand-daughter of William Holbert, early settler at Indian Orchard, says the captives were driven to the flats at Indian Orchard where they were forced to grow crops for the Indians and butcher their cattle. During captivity, Stephen Kimble died. Joseph Parish reportedly married an Indian and stayed with the Indians. Stephen Parish returned to Paupack as an Indian doctor after peace was declared, but returned to die with the Indians, according to Phineas Goodrich. Reuben Jones escaped after outrunning a brave in a race.

Jacob Kimble with son Abel built first grist mill on Kimble Brook.
