MFH: 22 August

Today is the 213th anniversary of the birth of my 4th great-grandfather, Jacob Schön. Jacob was born 22 August 1795 in Brücken, Kusel, Rheinland-Pfalz, Germany. Jacob was married to Margaretha Jost on 20 November 1813 in Kübelberg, Kusel, Rheinland-Pfalz, Germany. Jacob and Margaretha had six children, four sons and two daughters. All four of their sons emigrated to the United States.
