Trammell became a wealthy farmer and landowner.  In 1847, he and his partner B.W.

It appears that Jacob was involved in a land fraud scandal.  Through a series of hearings and  trials that lasted from 1828 to 1842 indicates that Jacob conspired with Macon County entry taker Jonathan Phillip.  Phillips, after midnight, but before his office opened in the morning of 2nd of May, 1836, land purchases before was made by Jacob, who had the unfair of advantage of buying without competing.  More than 100,000 acres of land was obtained illegally by Trammell.  He had to face a jury and it appears he admitted his wrong doing, but there is no indication  he was punished. - From MACON COUNTY ECHOS, Vol 17, No, 4, Winter, 2004.pp13-15.
