			== Entry in [[The Boone Family]] ==

			We find that one Jacob Stover was granted land on Oley Creek, Philadelphia Co. in 1714.

			It is thought that Jacob removed to Virginia, probably after his wife's death, for we find in Virginia record one of Jacob Stover's sale of land in Augusta County (now Rockingham County), to George Boone of Oley; one tract of 500 acres and another of 1000 acres described as near the end of North Mountain, on a small branch of the Shenandoah, part of 5000 acres laid out for Stover by the Council of Virginia July, 1730. In 1738, a wife Margaret (Stover) signed a deed for land sold by Jacob to another person. Margaret was probably a second wife.
