Jacob Brock (b. @1825, IN - d.17 Oct 1886, Delaware Co., IN) married 5 May 1944 (Delaware
Co., IN) Polly (Mary??) Smith (b.@1824 - d. btw June 1860 & Dec 1863, Delaware Co.,
IN).
Their children were: Hannah (b. 1844); Margaret(b. 1853), and Jacob(b. 1859), all in
Delaware Co., IN. Obviously, there is a large gap in which other children may have been
born & died, but these are the only children that made it to the 1850 and 1860
censuses.
Jacob had 2 more wives: Nancy Williams (m. Dec. 1863) and Lutetia M. Dales (m. 1880).
I THINK (but need proof) that the parents of this couple were:
Jacob: Sherod Brock(b.@1781, d. 1858) & Mary (), and a brother of Jackson Brock, based
on dates of birth, etc.
Polly: Hiram Smith & ? Kuntz, and a sister of Solomon Smith, who was living with them
in 1860.
If there is anyone willing to take a look at the probate records (which I have requested
from the County, but never received), please contact me. I have the file/record numbers
for Jacob Brock, but not the others.
