I have Jacob Fagg, b. 1847, married Mary J. Jewell on Sep 19, 1880 in Edgar Co., Illinois.
Jacob is the son of Thomas Jefferson Fagg and Rebecca Surber (I am a Surber researcher).
In 1880 Jacob is living with his mother and her second husband, Isaac Deen in Paris, Edgar
Co., Illinois. Also with the family is a child, Freeman Fagg, age 2, relationship not
stated.
Jacob first married Catherine (apparently Solomon, although I have not found a marriage
record). They had children, Mary, 2 and John, b. Apr 1870 in 1870. Also with the family
was Nancy Solomon, age 63, b. KY. I found Catherine, age 16, living with her parents,
John and Nancy Solomon in 1860.
I have additional information on Rebecca Surber if anyone is interested.
