About James Jacob Presnell, II

PRESNELL, James Jacob, wife Mary Julie Maupin  

Lowell's resumes conflict when referring to the parents of James Jacob (004.2) he has shown that he was the son of Jame (3) and Sarah, but in another resume he states that James Jacob (#004.2) is the son of James (3) and Mary Ann (whom he believes to be Mary Ann Spencer).

In one resume Lowell states that he believes James Jacob was born in Boulogne France, Land of the Huguenots and Normans, and that while he was in France he was called James Jacques de Presnelle and while in England he was called James Jacob Presnell.

Lowell assumes that he moved from France to Dartford, Kent County, England close to St. Giles, Crippengate Parish, London County, England around the year 1680. He also assumes that he sailed to America around 1698 with the Spencer family.
