• Name	Jesse John Muncey  [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7]
  	descent from Jeremiah Muncy not proven but circumstantial
  Suffix	Sr.
  Nickname	Jessie
  Birth	ca 1785	Virginia or Delaware   [1]
  	some sources say born in England, other sources, including census says born in Virginia. One census list Delaware. Military enlistment record of 1812 lists place of birth as Delaware. Mabel (his wife) was listed in 1850 census as born in Connecticut. Birth listings summarized below: 1812 - Enlisted in Army, age 26, (b. ca 1786) birthplace shown as Delaware. Name shown is Jesse (alias John) Muncey. Enlistment in Army in Chillicothe, OH ; an armorer. Transferred to Michigan and discharged in 1817, where he remained. 1850 Census - listed as Jesse Muncy, age 66 (b. ca 1784) in Virginia. "Lake Huron Shore", published 1883, p.164, biograpical info on early Lake Huron area settlers lists Jesse Muncey Sr. as being "originally from Virginia." The Lake Huron Shore, a history of early pioneers of the area, (p. 164) says that Jesse Muncey Sr. Death certificates of children always list England as the place of birth. This appears to be the only source showing England as location of birth. Most likely that Virginia or Delaware is the place of birth. Delaware is certainly a possibility since Muncys were in Delaware during that period, although most were in Virginia by his birthdate. Also, adding to this possibility, is that his wife was listed as born in Connecticut (near Delaware). (revised: Steve Muncy 02/2023)
