Jacob A. SAGERSER, born abt. 1850 in Jessamine County, KY, married Elizabeth SHRIWIS, born
abt. 1850 in KY. They were married in Orange County, IN on May 8, 1872. The 1880 census
shows them in French Lick, Orange County, IN. They have two daughters, Minnie born abt.
1874 and Ora born abt. 1876.
In the 1900 census, Jacob was living in Douglas County, MO and had remarried sometime
around 1885. A son, Wilbur, born abt. 1880 in IN, was listed. He was born a couple of
months after the 1880 census was taken. I think Elizabeth may have died in child birth or
before the family moved to MO. She must have died sometime between 1880 and 1885. I
haven't had any luck finding death records in that area during that time period.
Also, I have not found any more information on their daughter, Minnie. I don't know
if she got married or if she died.
Does anyone have any access to records or cemeteries in or around French Lick?? Any
information regarding this family would be very much appreciated.
Thanks,
Bonnie Rardin
