The following is stated at the top of Jacobs obituary
"Jacob was the son of Jacob Watts (1755-1815) and Elizabeth Watts".

Dear Ms. Godsey,
Thank you for posting your request on History Hub!
We suggest that you request a search from the North Carolina State Archives for any records of birth, marriage, death, probate files, land records, or wills that could provide a clue to kinship of Jacob Watts. We also suggest you contact the Federation of North Carolina Historical Societies for local historical societies that may have collected diaries, journals, etc. regarding the Watts family. Local churches and cemeteries in the area may provide additional information.
And please review the FamilySearch Research wiki for North Carolina Vital Records, North Carolina,Genealogy and Talladega County Alabama, Genealogy
We hope this is helpful. Best of luck with your research!
