The 1850 census lists the following children: Funck, Polly; age 23; female; b. OH Funck, Elizabeth; age 20; female; b. OH Funck, Joseph; age 19; male; b. OH Funck, Isaac; age 17; male; farmer; b. OH Funck, David; age 15; male; farmer; b. OH Funck, Deena; age 12; female; b. OH Funck, Samuel; age 8; male; b. OH There is also a George Funk living next door and a Jacob B. Funk next door to George. Susanna Funk, who married Josiah Hildebrand, is listed as his daughter on some sites and her mother as Catherine Bossler, but Jacob married Catherine Bossler in 1823 and Susanna was born in 1822. There is another marriage listed in Stark Co., OH (where Jacob married Catherine Bossler), for a Jacob Funk marrying Catherine Palmer in 1816. But George would have been born around 1811. Who was Jacob's first wife and where were they married? George was born in OH. There are so many Jacob Funk's that I can't seem to find mine. Jacob died 1853 in Kosciusko Co., IN. Jacob's parents have been listed as Martin Funk and Magdalena Bechtel, but I can't find any proof of this. Does anyone have any information on this Jacob??? Who were his parents and siblings??
