"10. Jacob2 Warner, son of Andrew1 Warner, died in Hadley, Mass., Nov. 8, 1711 (tombstone record) or November 29, 1711 (Hadley town record). He was a freeman in Hadley, May 30, 1690. The date and place of his birth are unknown. There have been some who think he was the son of Andrew by his second wife, Esther Selden, but the facts on which they base their claim are not sufficient, in the absence of more conclusive evidence, to substantiate the claim. From the dates of birth of his children, it is evident that he must have been one of the younger children, at any rate. His grave in Hadley is next to Meadow Road. He was one of the early settlers on Plot 10, Hadley, the tenants of which were: Andrew Warner, 1663; Andrew and Jacob, 1682; Widow Andrew Warner and Jacob, 1690; Widow Elizabeth Warner and Jacob, 1720 (the son); Jacob, 1731; Orange, Elihu, and Oliver, 1770; 1821 and later, other family names. (Grafton Magazine, vol. I.) Letters of administration on the estate of Jacob Warner were issued to his widow Elizabeth and son Jacob, May 18, 1711. The inventory was taken February 7, 1711-12, and listed housing and homestead, land in Aqua Vitae and at ye Great Meadow, together with an extensive list of articles, the whole valued at £359, 5, 4. The son Jacob, as eldest, received a double portion, and the other five children, portions of £29, 11, each. (Northampton probate records, 3:255, 267, etc.)"
