  Anecdote	Came to Texas in 1835, as is stated in Headright Certificate No. 86 issued to him February 2, 1838 for one-third of a league of land by the Board of Land Commissioners of Harrisburg County. The certificate was assigned to Thomas J. Gazley. In Comptroller's Military Service Record No. 499 it is certified that Mr. Maybee enlisted in Captain William S. Fisher's Company of "Velasco Blues", April 21; fought at San Jacinto and was discharged June 22, 1836. Bounty Certificate No, 2980 for 320 acres of land was issued in the name of Jacob Maybee, April 23, 1838, due him for three months service in the army. This was lost and a duplicate issued later was delivered to Benjamin C. Franklin. In the duplicate the period of enlistment is now shown. Mr. Maybee died at Houston, February 8, 1838. Knowing that he was likely to die he, on February 5 in the presence of James McGee, John Shea, James Ferguson, Charles Chamberland, Frederick Limiski, Charles Scarborough and Joseph Timmons, made a will leaving all of his property real and personal to his friend Milton Perry. He stated that his army discharge entitling him to land for three months service was in possession of Mr. Hoskins, an inn-keeper at Velasco, and that his brace of pistols and a Bowie knife were in possession of George Elliot of Velasco. He would not write but affixed his mark to his will. These facts are to be found in the Probate Records of Harris County.
  Anecdote	The Jacob Maybee who died in Texas in 1838, may not be the one born in New York in 1802, but he is the only unaccounted for Jacob of this period
