Hi everyone,

I am looking for any information on my gg-grandfather Jacob Franklin Kerns.
According to his death record he was born 8 June 1844 in VA to John Kerns.
Jacob married Mary Kerr Bowersox in Hancock Co, OH on 23 Apr 1874. Jacob
died 15 Jan 1916 in Hancock Co, OH. My grandfather remembers that Jacob
served in the Civil War. I have not been able to document this yet.

I found a John KEARNES and family living in Blanchard Twp Hancock Co, OH in
1850. I believe this to be my Jacob's family. John Kearnes 49 b. VA, Ann 41
b. MD, John 19 b. OH, George 17 b. OH, William 16 b. OH, Leonidas 14 b. OH,
Mary 12 b. OH, Charles 10 b. OH, Sarah 8 b. OH, Phebe Ann 6 b. OH, Jacob 5
b. OH, Benjamin 1 b. OH.

If anyone has any information on this family, please contact me. I will
share what information I have.

Sheila
