Jacob was my 3rd great-granduncle.

He was the son of William & Juanita Caples.

Jacob was married twice. His first wife was Rachel Kelly who he married on Dec. 20, 1804 in Anne Arundel Co., MD. They had twelve children:

Susannah, Robert F., Jacob M., Susan, Ellen, Rachel, Caroline, Sharlotte, Mary Anne, Elizabeth, Margaret, & Mordica Caples.

Jacob's second wife was probably a cousin, Sarah Ann Caple who he married on April 23, 1840 in Carroll Co., MD.

It would be helpful to know if there is a source other than someone's family tree for Larkin being Jacob's middle name. It does not appear in any census, in his will, or on his gravestone.

Inscription

Resting Place for Jacob Caple
Who departed this life Dec. 16, 1858
In the 84th year of his age.
Sleep on, dear father, thy work is done
The mortal pang is past.
Jesus has come and bourne thee home
Beyond the stormy blast
Farewell, dear wife, and children dear,
Weep not, but think of me.
God's will be done, so do not fear.
In heaven we'll happy be.
