I am going out of town for a few days, but I wanted to get this request out
to see if anyone can help me. I have found a Jacob Huber ( sometimes Hoover)
who appeared in court to get his declaration of intention to become a citizen
after arriving from
Germany. The document was dated 17 August 1854. He was not given in the
1870 census. Are their books listing deaths in Jennings County for certain
years? Were there articles in the newspapers at all back that far? If
anyone has access to this information, I would truly appreciate any help I
could get. I ran out of time so I did not check the 1860 census, which I
will do when I return. His son ( my great-grandfather), his wife, and his
other children came to the US in 1861. He might have still been alive at
that time. Any help or any other suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Carlene
