I do have a little on Jacob and Catherine's children, but not a whole lot. It's
just what I have been able to pick up from the census'. I believe Jacob Sr. was
married at least 3 times. First, to the mother of Jacob Jr. Then I believe he was married
to Catherine Palmer, then Catherine Bossler. I am descended through Jacob Sr.'s
daughter Susannah. What I have found is that she is listed as the daughter of Catherine
Bossler, but Jacob and Catherine Bossler were not married until 1823 and Susannah was born
in Feb of 1822. There was a marriage in the Ohio marriage index for Jacob Funk marrying
Catherine Palmer 29 Mar 1816. She would probably be the mother of Susannah. As for Jacob
Sr.'s father, it's possibly Martin Funk, but I'm still trying to find links on
this. It's also possible that Jacob Sr. had a brother or uncle named Henry. This
family has been pretty hard!! I have information on Susanna's family.
