Jacob Mica Truman and his family lived in Canada for eight years. While there, they worked together to build new homes. Not long after they had arrived in Charlottesville, Lauretta started seeing a young man named Henry Barnum. A local boy who had grown up in the vicinity. Henry worked as a boatman or mariner on lake Erie. On the 22nd of March, 1831, hardly a year after they had arrived in Charlottesville. Lauretta, then only 16, and Henry Barnum were married by the local Presbyterian minister. Listed as witnesses at the marriage were John F. Truman, Mica Spencer, and Jacob's nine year old sister Rhoda.
As a consequence of Lauretta knowing Henry Barnum, Anna Maria met Henry's brother, James Barnum. They quickly fell in love and they were married a year afterward on the 20th of June 1832, at the local Baptist Church. In 1837 Upper Canada, as Ontario was then known, was in the midst of political turmoil. Due to some of the arbitrary decisions made by many of the British appointed officials, who seemed to favor the rich and landed interests over the less wealthy settlers, many of whom were originally from the United States, a revolt broke out, led by William Lyon Mackenzie, in an effort to get Canada to join the United States. One of the hotbeds of the revolt was the area of Long Point and Charlottesville. This revolt, or Patriot's Rebellion as it was known, was quickly put down in December of 1837, and many of it's leaders were captured. It is not known if John Truman's or Mica Spencer's families took part in this revolt, but by 1838 John Truman, Mica Spencer, Henry and James Barnum and their families were all living in the area of Ypsilanti, Washtenaw County, Michigan. A short distance from Detroit.
It was while Jacob's family lived in Michigan that tragedy struck his family. On December 26th, 1835, the day after Christmas, just a year after they had moved to Michigan, John P. Truman, according to tradition, went "fishing' and never returned - dying while away from his family Jacob was only 14 when this happened and he was left to help care for his mother, something he faithfully did until she died. For a time Martha, Rhoda, and Jacob lived with his sister Lauretta and her family where they appeared in the 1840 census of Ypsilanti, Michigan.
It was while they were living in Ypsilanti that Jacob's family first heard about the Book of Mormon and the restoration of the Gospel by Joseph Smith, from missionaries sent out from Nauvoo Lauretta was the first to recieve the Gospel and was baptized November 17th, 1842. The rest of the family didn't accept the Church quite as fast. Apparently they wanted time to think about this new religion before joining. About this time a lot of things started happening at once to Jacob's family. First Lauretta's husband left her; leaving her with two small children to care for alone. Anna Maria's husband died in 1842 leaving her with three small children. Rhoda married Stephen Hicks in 1844 and moved away. And Mica Spencer decided to move to Knox County, Illinois in 1845 where a small Mormon settlement had been established.
