Notes for Jacob (Spouse 1)
"The Sabbath Recorder", Vol 18, No 6, p 23, Feb. 6, 1862.
In Milton, Wis., January 3, 1862, of consumption, Jacob Davis, in the 71st year of his age. Bro. Davis was borne, in infancy, by his parents, from his native State, Pennsylvania, to New Salem, Va., and, at the age of sixteen, accompanied his father's family to Ohio; but, in 1813, to evade the frontier difficulties of the war of 1812, he returned to Virginia, where he professed faith in Christ, and united with the Seventh-day Baptist Church of New Salem. In 1815, he returned to Clarke Co., Ohio, where he was one of the seven who were organized into the North Hampton Seventh-day Baptist Church. In 1845, with his family, he removed to Milton, Wis., where his active Christian life with that of his worthy wife and all his children, ten in number, with their companions, form a respectable portion of the Seventh-day Baptist Church at Milton, and where, like Jacob the Patriarch, when he "had made an end of commanding his sons, he gathered up his feet into the bed, and yielded up the Ghost, and was gathered unto his people."
