It looks like we have the same ancestors. I have several references to a Jacob Magee born in 1758 to either John (son of William) or William Magee or McGehee, died in Marion, Mississippi in 1816. There seems to be some confusion on who his father was. My ancestors come through Tobias Magee, born in 1794 in Sampson County, North Carolina, son of Robert, son of John, son of William McGehee. Tobias died in Prentiss, Mississippi in 1851; my GG Grandmother Rachel Magee was his daughter. Her brothers and sons all served in various Mississippi units.
