I did call the health dept and they told me that on Paul's birth
certificate, no father was listed, only the mother Theresa Engelhart. I cannot
find any death on Jacob Jerger in Dubois CO, so I am wondering if he perhaps
died in Daviess? Can anyone help me? Thanks. Helen Zuber Keusch
I looked on the
Ancestry.com "Indiana Death Records 1881-1920" which
includes Daviess Co. and Martin Co. and there was no Jacob or similar Jerger. While
death indexes were kept, they were not necessarily complete. Did they
divorce or did he die in the Spanish American War?
The 1900 census index has plenty of Jergers in Daviess, Martin and Dubois
counties, but no Jacob. And, only 3 Jacob Jergers in the whole US, none
anywhere near the same age.
