Mary Phillips, Here is what I have on Jacob S. Geiger. He was born March 25, 1824 in Jasper County, Georgia. He died February 2, 1896 in Geneva, Seminole County, Florida. His parents were Harmon Horlbeck Geiger(1797-1868) and Rube Lavinia Kaigler Geiger (1800-1852) who lived in Shadydale, Jasper County, Georgia. Jacob S. Geiger's siblings were as listed in Faye Walenceus' posting: Ann, James M., Randall Capers, Louisa Elizabeth, and Marjulia. He had a half sister named Celeste. Jacob S. Geiger is listed in the 1860 Newton County, Georgia census as a 36 year old teacher, with wife, Eliza P., 30 years old, and children Henry H., 11, Julia, 8, John, 6, William F., 4, and George P., 4/12. He lived next door to W. W. Geiger, a 28 year old teacher who I believe to be his first cousin, Washington Geiger.There is also J. J. (John Jacob) Geiger, a 59 year old farmer who lived nearby in the 1860 Newton County census. This is Jacob S's uncle. Also, James M. Geiger, Jacob S's brother, is shown as a 40 year old farmer in this same census. Newton County borders Jasper County. In 1872 Jacob S. Geiger is listed as an Elder and Local Preacher in the Methodist Espiscopal Church South in Georgia. He must have moved to Florida after 1872. Jacob S. Geiger married Elizabeth P. Binford on September 9, 1847. They had 8 children born in Georgia: Henry H.(born 1849), Julia K. (born 1852), John W. (1854), Chaddeous W. (1854), Allen T.(1856), William F. (1856), George P. (1860), and James L. (1862). Mary, I do think that the Jacob S. Geiger who died in Geneva, Florida was the son of Harmon Horlbeck Geiger and the grandson of John Randolph Geiger.
