( - 1759)

Jacob Huber inherited his father's farm in Earl Township. Between 1745 and 1754, he moved to present-day Providence Township, and sold his father's Earl Township land to two of his sons, Hans and Martin. He built and operated a grist mill, which was rebuilt in 1784 by David Strohm and became know as Strohm's Mill. Jacob's 1748 Martyrs' Mirror is in the Muddy Creek Farm Library.
