  Obituary	Obit., Maryland Gazette, Dec. 26, 1816: Franklin, Capt. Jacob, died at his residence near West River, on Friday last [Dec. 20]. The complaint which terminated the earthly career of this worthy gentleman is supposed to have been brought on by the fatigue and exposure which he endured during the late war. He was 38 years old." I assume this means the War of 1812, but I don't know how he was affected by it.
  Religion	Episcopal
  Death	21 Dec 1816	Anne Arundel Co., Maryland   [2]
  Burial	Friends Burying Ground, West River, Anne Arundel Co., Maryland   [3, 4]

  Patriarch & Matriarch	Robert Franklin, Sr.           b. Bef 1641             d. Bef 1681  (Age < 40 years)  (Great Grandfather)  Elizabeth           b. Abt 1655, St. James Parish, Anne Arundel Co., Maryland   (Great Grandmother)
  Notes	Many of their children (Mary, Thomas, and Ann at least) are buried in West River at the Quaker Burying Ground. He appears in the 1776 census of Anne Arundel Co, St. James Parish; he was married, but as yet with no children. A note from the marriage register: Franklin, Jacob; 5 March 1776; Anne Battee ("Marriage Register of Rev. David Love," discovered by Peter Wilson Coldham in the Public Record Office, London (PRO: AO 13/61(II)/ 420ff.). (note in the Maryland State Archives) On 29 Aug. 1816, his name appears in the Maryland Gazette as one of four men standing for "Members of the Assembly" on the Republican ticket along with Thomas Hood, Brice J. Worthington, and Charles W. Hanson. Charles S. Ridgely and Daniel Murrary were on the ticket as Electors of the Senate from Anne Arundel Co. This was the August before he died. The Franklin Account book has his death as 21 Dec. 1816. I also have October 28, 1819 for his death. [2, 5]
