I just bought a farmhouse that was built in 1796 in High Falls New York and the 1850 census has a Jacob Brodhead who at the time was 16 years old living in the house. That would mean his birth year was 1833 or 1834, the same as Jacob Brodhead's.
If it is the same person, his parents were John (Johannes) H Brodhead and his mother was Eliza. The Hardenbergh name is associated with the Brodheads by marriage.
If it is the same person Jacob is buried next the the house in the family graveyard. The house is located at 971 County Route 6 in High Falls New York.
The song is actually titled John Jacob Jingle Heimer Schmidt. However, the song is just an old children's song that is sung over and over, and not based on a real person.
