9-14 From an article in the "Deutsch-Amerikanische Geschichstblätter" published in
Chicago in 1902, I believe this family came from Schortens (Ostfriesland) and
settled in Will County Illinois. In that article the father's given name is listed
as Cornelius Behrend Jacobs. Also, according to the article the ship left Bremen on
the second day of Easter, i.e. April 16, 1854
14 Entry in the death column says: Death.
