Message Board Post:
Hello! Have you had any success in finding children, siblings and/or parents of Jacob?
I've been stuck on John M. Candy for quite some time now. He was born in PA around
1802 (per census and cemetary records). One of John's sons, Samuel, immigrated from
Philadelphia (his birthplace) to Illinois between 1850 and 1860. After the war, he
returned to Philadelphia.
These 2 families have additional similarities.
I thought my John M. Candy may be a child of Jacob's. Or possibly the brother of the
William, born 1801, that you found on the Centre County census. There are no other Candy
families in Philadelphia during John's time except for a Thomas Candy - but he has
been ruled out as a relative.
Thanks for your time!
Julie
