From the book History of Walworth County Wisconsin, by Albert Clayton Beckwith, 
publ. 1912 - Page 527
 
JACOB HERRICK, son of Joseph6, and Hannah NORTHRUP, of Salem, Connecticut, was 
born in Chenango county, in 1790.  His older ancestors were Joseph5, Stephen4, 
Samuel3, Ephraim2, Henry1 of Ipswich.  His first wife was Roxana BRADLEY.  In 
1841 he came to section 21, Geneva; married Mrs. Sarah (CORWIN) ROUSE; died 
October 30, 1859.  His children were Gilbert, Jason, Henry, Miles, Polly Maria, 
Phoebe, Adeline, Julia, and Harriet.  All these were long residents and became 
connected by marriage with other old families as ARMSTRONG, GRAY, ROSS, 
STEVENS, and WAIT.  The brothers, Alonzo and Moses S. HERRICK, of the same 
town, were not definitely related to Jacob's family, but Moses S. married 
Jacob's daughter Julia.
