He arrived in America no later than 1752, when a warrant for fifty acres was issued to Jacob Flook of Frederick County. He became a naturalized citizen in 1760. He may have been the Jacob Flug who arrived in Philadelphia on 13 Aug 1750 on the Edinburgh out of Rotterdam.
His origins and life are the subject of a large number of baseless claims online and elsewhere. His parents are said to have been Johannes Jacobus Flook (Pflug), b. 1673, and Anna Margaretha (Nickelin) Erkuche. He is said to have been born in Germany on 2 Mar 1698, or in Schafhausen, Baden-Württemberg on 5 Jul 1702. He is also said to have served in the French and Indian War in Capt. Peter Bainbridge's company, mustered at Frederick County, Maryland. To the best of our knowledge, none of these assertions have any merit whatsover.
Roy H. Wampler's roundup of what is actually known about Jacob Flook, in The Derr Family 1750-1986 (citation details below), chaper 32, seems to us pretty thorough. Not yet seen by us is what Wampler describes as a "comprehensive, well-documented" piece about Jacob Flook: Patricia Aberlard Anderson, "Jacob Fluck of Middletown, Frederick County, Maryland, and His Flook and Fluke Descendants." National Genealogical Society Quarterly 72:163, Sep 1984.Jacob married Barbara. Barbara died after 21 Jan 1797. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
