Jacob Warrick

Jacob Warrick

Jacob Warrick (1773 - 1811) was an Indiana militia leader.

Jacob Warrick was born at Warrick's Station, in Greenbrier County, West Virginia, the son of John Warrick, who fought at the Battle of Point Pleasant, in Lord Dunmore's War in 1774. Jacob Warrick moved on to Nicholas County, Kentucky.

In 1795, Warrick married Jane Montgomery, in Virginia. She was the daughter of Thomas Montgomery, who settled in Montgomery County, Kentucky in 1793.

The Montgomery family arrived in Gibson County, Indiana, in 1805, and the Warricks arrived in 1806. Warrick, together with Thomas Montgomery, burned the last Native American village in Gibson County in 1807, and pursued the Natives into Illinois.

Capt. Jacob Warrick commanded a company in the Indiana militia during Tecumseh's War. He was killed on November 7 1811 at the Battle of Tippecanoe. His widow, Jane Montgomery, died in 1846 in Gibson County, Indiana.
