TitlePhilipa Jacob
Date7 Mar 1796
DescriptionPhilipa Jacob, a 47 year old woman, requests to be admitted to the Hospital. She was born on 16 September 1749. Her late father, Pierre Jacob, was a watchmaker and her grandfather, Marc Jacob, was originally from Dieppe, in Normandy. Philipa suffers from a physical disability since childhood that does not allow her to work. Both her parents have now passed away so she has no one who can take care of her. Her aunt (thought to be Anne Jacob) is currently a resident of the French Hospital. The petition is signed by Fran Duroure.
