Twin of Chester L. Pierce.
Note: Although their headstone clearly states Jacob died on April 3rd, 1911, his obituary gives his death date as April 17th. Clearly the headstone must have been ordered (at least) after the death of twin brother Chester in 1914, so the family probably mis-remembered the exact date of Jacob's death, and April 17th is likely the correct date.
