Notes

  • According to his baptismal record, his sponsors were Jacob and Elisabeth Walter, his uncle and aunt. His surname is spelled "STAMBACH" and his parents are identified as "Henrich and Chatharina Stambach". In his estate documents - Jacob died intestate - his surname is spelled "STOMBAUGH". Though the documents are filed in Portage County, Ohio, they state that Jacob resided in New Baltimore, Stark County. The administrators of Jacob's will were his pregnant widow, Ruth, and a David Maxwell. On March 26, 1844 on Portage County, Ohio, Ruth applied to be the Adminstrix of her deceased husband's estate. On April 4, 1844 Ruth Stombaugh and David Maxwell were appointed administrators for Jacob's will and Jacob Yarian and Collins McGreggir supplied the sureties. Jacob's estate settlement identifies specifically his widowed, pregnant wife, Ruth, and the following children, all identified as "minors": John, Joseph, Rebecca, Henry, and Jacob. There is no marker for Jacob Stambaugh in Portage County nor is there one in Stark County; however, there are two crumbled, illegible stones in the row where his parents, two brothers, and two sisters-in-law are buried in Sand Hill Cemetery in Randolph Twp.
