SIMCOCK, Jacob, son of John the elder, immigrated to this country with him and 
settled in Ridley.  Early in the year 1685, he was married to Alice, daughter of 
George Maris of the “Home House” in Springfield township.  He, also, like his 
father was a public Friend; traveled as a minister, and held public trusts.  He 
was appointed Deputy Register General under James Claypole in 1686, and probably 
for a short time resided in Philadelphia.  He died about the year 1716.  His 
wife survived him ten years.  Their children were John, Jacob, Benjamin, Hannah 
and Mary.
