    • Jakob embarked at Bremen on the maiden voyage of the steamship Ems, arriving at Castle Garden, N.Y. July 14, 1884. He may be the Jacob Jordy, born in Germany, who was naturalized at the Tazewell County Courthouse in Pekin March 23, 1896. Gary L. Yordy proposes that he is also shown on the 1900 census of Cincinnati, Tazewell County as Jacob Yordy, a boarder in the home of Charles Bailey. He is described as a 45-year-old farm laborer, born in Germany in September 1854, whose parents were born in Germany, and who immigrated in 1884. [1, 2]
