General Notes: Husband - Jacob Stover


After marriage, he spent some years at the old homestead with his parents and then moved to another farm in the same township. He lived to be over eighty years of age. He was six feet, two inches tall, stout in propor­tion, and was active until a short time before his death. Like the rest of the family, he was a successful farmer, and although he voted the Democratic ticket regularly, he was not espe­cially interested in politics. He was a member of the Reformed Church, to which he contributed liberally.
