pp. 1-3:
" Jesse Brock was born in Cumberland Co., VA 1751. He referred to his birth date in his pension statement (S 30887 in Archives Washington, DC as follows: 'I was born on the 8th day of December 1751 so my father told me. He always told me I was four years old the year of Braddock's Defeat.'" General Braddock and his 'Redcoats' were defeated by the French and Indians in July of 1755, early in the French and Indian War. Gen. Braddock had been sent from England to take command of the colonial troops, combined with the Redcoats he had brought with him, and try to drive the French out of the Ohio River country. He was making a drive on Fort Duquesne which the French had built on the ground now covered by Pittsburg, when the Indians attacked in a woodland, killing many of Braddock's troops and routing the remainder. The General had four horses shot from under him. After he himself was shot he was carried back with the retreating army. On July 13 he died and was buried in the road so the tread of retreating horses' hoofs would obliterate the grave and thus hide it from the pursuing French and Indian troops." A large contingent of the colonial army was from Jesse Brock's part of Virginia, hence it is easy to understand how the defeat of the famous English general at the head of Virginia troops became a date of reference." Eventually, of course, the English, or British as they are also known, defeated the French and declared the Ohio River country open for settlement. However, the American colonies soon began to resent British rule, and this resentment culminated in a Colonial revolution against the British which came to be known as The Revolutionary War." At the outbreak of this [Revolutionary] war Jesse Brock was living at Guilford, NC. He was a young man of 25 and, as someone has put it, was excellent 'war fodder.' So, when the call to arms came he soon found himself among the ranks." After the close of the war Jesse Brock lived for a while in Guilford Co., NC, then moved to Franklin Co., VA. Being dissatisfied with Franklin Co. he moved back to Guilford. But Guilford didn't yet suit him so he moved to Russell Co. in Southwest Virginia, about 1794." This was the year the notorious halfbreed Cherokee Chief Benge and his band burned the Peter and Henry Livingston homes on Holston River, captured two Livingston women and set out Northward across Russell Co. with them. White men pursued, overtook the party in the Big Stone Gap near present Appalachia, VA, slew Benge and rescued the women." This was the last known Indian raid in Southwest Virginia. Being a newcomer to the area the event made a deep impression on Jesse Brock, for, according to a descendant, James Brock of Leslie Co., KY, the old man told and retold the story." But Jesse Brock found disfavor with Russell Co., VA, and cast about for another area. He'd heard stories about Knox Co., KY, just north of Big Black Mountain. So about 1798 he took his small family to the banks of Wallen's creek, a branch of Cumberland River." Here, descendants say, he died Oct. 13, 1843. His wife is said to have been Rebecca Howard, a sister of Samuel Howard, the first settler of the area. Jesse was buried in the old Mason's Cemetery on Wallen's Creek, which became a part of Harlan Co. when it was formed in 1819."
Notes: From the interview of Elijah Brock, great grandson of Jesse Brock, as given to Annie Walker Burns "Jesse Brock was the first settler of Wallins Creek Kentucky. He was about a three-quarter Indian, and had so much Indian blood in him, that he had no trouble in living among the Indians who were thickly settled in the mountains when he first came, raised his family among them, hunted along with them, with no trouble whatever."Jesse's date of birth was recorded in his Revolutionary War Pension Declaration sworn to in Harlan County Circuit Court on the 16th day of October 1833 " I was born in Cumberland County in the State of Virginia on the 8th day of December 1751 - as my father has told me"…. "my father always told me that I was four years old the year of Bradies [Braddock's] defeat" .
The various residences of Jesse was also mentioned in his declaration "I lived in Guilford County State of North Carline Where I was called into the Service the first and second time; and I lived in Surry County in the State of North Caroline When I was called into service the last time; And the same spring after the close of the war I moved Back to Guilford County in the state of North Caroline, Where I lived a few years But I can not remember the precise time. I then moved to Franklin county in the state of Virginia where I lived several years; I then moved Back to Guilford County State of North Caroline Where I lived several years, But I cant say how many I then moved to Russell County in the state of Virginia Where I lived four years, I then moved to Knox County State of Kentucky which was after wards stricken off to Harlan County Kentucky Where I now live, I have been here thirty four or five years".
Other than his birth, no mention of Jesse's life prior to his living in Guilford County was made and no records have been located to assist in tracing his whereabouts. The earliest record found to date was in September of 1776 where Jesse appeared on the membership list for the Matrimony Creek Baptist Church in Guilford County, Virginia. [Matrimony Creek Baptist Church was located in Guilford Co., NC until the formation of Rockingham Co., NC in 1785] Also included on this list were the names of an Esther Brock and Darby Callahan. Darby Callahan is claimed to be the father of Edward Callahan, husband of Mahala Brock, who is thought to be the sister of Jesse Brock.
Although no date was mentioned for Jesse's first enlistment in the service, we can estimate it to be about 1780. He enlisted for 3 months and upon his discharge reenlisted in Guilford for an additional three months. Sometime after his discharge, Jesse moved to Surry Co., NC, where in Feb of 1881 he reenlisted for another three month term. When he was discharged in the spring of 1781, Jesse once again moved back to Guilford County where he remained for a few years before migrating to Franklin County, Virginia where he lived until about 1783. He then returned to Guilford County for a final time where in February of 1785 he was excommunicated from Matrimony Creek Baptist Church. Per Jesse's Revolutionary War Pension Declaration he migrated from Guilford County to Russell County, Virginia and remained there until he moved to Knox County KY. Not mentioned in Jesse's declaration was Henry County, VA. According to the information supplied on the 1870 Federal Population Census for Lee County VA, Barthena [Brock] Slone, daughter of Jesse was born in Henry County VA in about 1884. A Jesse Brock is listed on the tax rolls in Henry County VA for the year 1790. However this year conflicts with Barthena's age. Either Barthena's year of birth is inaccurate, or Jesse was briefly in Henry County at the time Barthena was born and it was not accounted for in his declaration.
Jesse is listed on the tax rolls of Russell County for the years 1795-1798. There has been no definite record of Jesse located in 1799 or 1800. A Jesse Brock and Jesse Brock Jr. appears on the 1799 Franklin County VA tax list, however, there is no way of knowing if either are the right Jesse. What can be ascertained from this information is that if this was the same Jesse, the Jesse Brock Jr. listed could not have been Jesse's son as he had not reached taxable age. This leaves us with the question of who was the 2nd Jesse if one of these is indeed Jesse Brock who migrated to Harlan County.
By the year of 1801, Jesse is living in Knox County KY and accounted for on the Knox County tax rolls. On the 7th of June 1802, Jesse acquired 200 acres on Wallins Creek. Jesse's days of being unsettled were over as he resided in the area known as Wallins Creek throughout the remainder of his life. Jesse continued to acquire more land and on November 22, 1807 Jesse received a land grant for an additional 206 acres on Wallins Creek. In later years Jesse would receive two more grants for 50 acres each. Of the grants reviewed to date, Jesse and some of his son's worked together as a survey team. In the majority of cases James Brock, Jesse's eldest son, was the head surveyor. Other known son's involved were Aaron and Amon. On two occasions a George Brock was listed as part of the survey crew. Knowing the relatedness between other members of the survey team, the listing of a George Brock as well appears to give evidence of a family connection as.
In 1819, a portion of Knox County was stricken off into the newly formed county of Harlan. Jesse is listed among the men over the age of 21 being transferred, along with members of his family which included his sons, Jesse Jr., James, Aaron and Amon. There were only a few real estate conveyances involving Jesse in Harlan County. The majority of which were with his son Aaron. No mention of any of Jesse's other children were made in his deeds, nor was the name of his wife mentioned. Information has been circulated that his wife was Rebecca Howard, but so far nothing has been found to confirm it. The Harlan County Court Order, January term of 1856, naming the living heirs of Jesse Brock states Jesse's death occurred on the 13th of June 1843 in Harlan County. The living heirs listed were Aaron Brock, Amon Brock, Theny Slone, Sally Coldiron, Susannah Blanton and Polly Helton. The children of Jesse who were deceased by that time were documented in and interview given by Elijah Brock, grandson of Amon Brock, great grandson of Jesse. Two sons who were deceased by 1856 and not listed among the heirs in the court order mentioned as the sons of Jesse in Elijah's interview were James Brock and Jesse Brock Jr.
As an added note we must interject that many researchers claim this Jesse's name to be Jesse James Brock. In the many documents regarding Jesse found to date none give any evidence of the name Jesse James, or a middle initial to even suggest it.
Rebecca (Howard) Brock was the daughter of Samuel Howard and Frances (Dryden) Howard, the wife of Jesse Brock, and the mother of Barthena (Brock) Sloan, James Calvin Brock, Jesse Brock, John Brock, George Brock, Susannah (Brock) Blanton, Aaron Brock, Amon Brock, Mary (Brock) Helton, Sarah (Brock) Coldiron, Charlotte (Brock) Melton, and Hetty (Brock) Helton.

Mentioned by name in the testimony of Elijah Brock given to Annie Walker Burns. Elijah states: "His next oldest daughter married Terry Melton, her name was Sally Brock." (The naming of Terry Melton as the husband of Sally Brock is an error. As Elijah mentioned Terry Melton by name this could possibly be a clue to the first wife of Terry Melton, said to be Charlotte, being the daughter of Jesse Brock)
