  • Notes 
    • “She was the second wife of Jacob Sann. His first wife was a Birkey. It is unknown who this woman was. (On Jacob's oldest son's death certificate, his mother's maiden name was listed as “Birkey”. Mary Sann's marriage license lists her parents Jacob Sann and Jacobina Stalter). Jacob Sann and his son, Jacob J. emigrated in 1843. It is unclear whether Jacob Sr. married Jacobina Stalter before, or after, immigrating. No immigration record has been found for Jacob. It is likely that the family emigrated at, or near, the same time as Heinrich Stalter. In the 1850 Census, Jacob and Jacobina “Sing“, (31) are found in Tazewell County Illinois.

      Also present in the household are three “Sing” children - Jacob (8), Christian (6) and Mary (1), and three people named “Stalder” - Frederika (20), Henry (23) and Lina (3 months). These Stalders are certainly Jacobina's brother, Henry Stalter, her sister, Veronika Stalter, and Veronica's daughter, Magdalina. The ages are correct for these people (Jacobina, Henry, and Frederika/Veronica) to be the children of Heinrich Stalter. And Veronica had a daughter named Magdalena (b. 1850) who was born before Veronica married George Eichelberger.

      In 1860, the family is listed as “Jacob Soun” near Tremont. The family includes Jacob (49), Jacobina (43), Jacob (18), Christian (16), Mary (10), and James (John - 3). Jacobina and son, Christian, died sometime after 1860. No record of their deaths or burial has been found to date. In 1870, Jacob (58, Bayern) was living with Jacob Jr.(27, Bayern), Mary (20, IL), and John (12, IL) in McLean County, Chenoa Township. Jacob Sann Sr. died sometime between 1880 and 1900. The child of Jacob Sann and unknown Birkey was Jacob J. Sann (January 1842 - 9/14/1922) m. Anna Meyer Exhauster (6/8/1851-6/9/1929), widow of Jacob Neuhauser. Jacob served in Company D., 152nd Regiment, Illinois Infantry, in 1865. He was described as 5'6" tall, brown hair, grey eyes, and dark complexion. His induction records give his place of birth as Germany and his residence as Hopedale. Jacob raised Anna's two children from her first marriage, Mary and Emanuel Neuhauser.” [2]
