The 1800 Lincoln County, NC, Census shows that Jacob was

The 1840 Census shows that Jacob and Elizabeth were still living
in Lincoln County, NC, near their two eldest sons, William
and David. William's wife, Esther, died on 07 Feb
1840, so she was not listed on the following Census. There were
only four children still living with Jacob (age 65) and
Elizabeth (age 61) on the family farm: John Jacob,

By 1850, Jacob was 75 and Elizabeth was 71. Their
son Emanuel Marcus, age 30, had assumed the Head
of the household and had married Mary Rudisill in
1845. Emanuel and Mary had three children: Margaret, age
4, Alexander, age 2, and Monroe, age 1. More than
likely, Emanuel had assumed control of the family farm and was
tending to his elderly parents. Emanuel and Jacob were both
still working as farmers. |
