It should be noted that Rachel Froman (on SAR application) who married to Patrick McGee was not the daughter of Jacob Froman. There several pieces of evidence that proves that she was the daughter of John Paul Froman Jr. The SAR application that was submitted in 1913, would not pass today's standard to convince a reasonable, unbiased person.

Paul Froman Sr did not service during the Revolutionary War, we know for a fact that Paul Froman Jr was the one who serviced during the Revolutionary War.
