Jacob Gerson is the second husband of Mary Ann (Bozarth) Hassler. They married 20OCT1869 at Rochester, Fulton, IN. They had one child Dora Maude Gerson. From the "Rochester Union Spy 22OCT1869" "Married. On Wednesday last the nuptials of Mr. Jacob Gerson and Mrs. Mary Hassler were consummated. The event was the culmination of considerable gossip... Mr Gerson is an Israelite by lineage, while Mrs. Hassler was reared in the Christian faith. It is not often that intermarriage occurs among people of opposing religious beliefs, and such a circumstance may never again transpire in the history of Rochester..." Mary Ann died 16MAY1872 and Jacob second married Annie (unknown) and they had four known children; Harry, Ellis Abraham, Maggie.
From the Rochester IN Sentinel newspaper, Friday, November 24, 1911. " Jacob Gerson, a former resident of Rochester, who left here more than twenty years ago after being one of the city's merchant tailors for forty years, died at his home in Indianapolis Sunday. Beside several children who are residents of Denver, Colorado, he leaves many friends to mourn their loss. Burial was made in Mt. Jackson cemetery at Indianapolis today. "
