Notes:

The German spelling of his last name was "Jauch"

Jacob allegedly in 1858, came to the United States as a stow-away on the ship Arlington. I have not yet documented this fact.

Jacob Yauch came to the United States in 1858 from Wurtemburg (Wittenberg) Germany, as a stow-away on a ship, having no fee for his passage. He was 19 years old & soon volunteered to serve in the Civil War with the Co. D. 108th Ohio Infantry.

His unit was overrun in 1862 at Hartsville, TN but he managed to survive the tragic ordeal.

Returning home he met & married a young Swiss girl, Margaret Hasler, who was 19 at the time. She was born in Canton Berne, Switzerland and had come to America with her family at the age of two.

Jacob took up farming as a livelihood settling in Richland County, IL near the Glenwood neighborhood.

Jacob worked hard on his farm for his family which eventually grew to eight children. He & Margaret's first six children were girls; Elizabeth, Rose, Della, Sarah (Sally), Della again, & Lillie Mae. There were then two sons John & Jacob born.

Jacob and Margaret lost four children in infancy including the first "Della", thus accounting for their naming another daughter Della in 1879.

Jacob died in 1899 at the age of 60. He was buried in Hanna Cemetery in Richland County where he has a military marker.

Margaret lived on until 1927, dying at the age of 78. She is also buried in the Hanna Cemetery.
