Notes for JACOB LEVI LOUGH/LOCH:
Revolutionary War / Pennsylvania
Jacob Lough entered the army of the Revolution as a teamster, being too young to do camp and field duty.He had been in the army but a short time when he told his comrades he could play the fife.They laughed at him and ridiculed him, knowing he had never had one in his hands.He said, "I have watched how the fifer moves his fingers, his mouth and how he holds his fife; get that fifer to lend me his fife and I'll show you I can play."The fifer was called and on being informed of the conversation, believing it a camp joke, handed his fife to Jacob, who, without a blunder, played to the astonishment of all, several tunes, which he had learned in the camp, better than the fifer.He was taken from his team and made Fife Major.Nearly the whole Lough family, which is numerous, possesses a musical talent.
History of Lough Family (Letter from J.N. Bilsland Ladoga IN to Mrs. Walter Stewart Darlington, IN dated Sept. 13, 1930)
