He is a native of Iowa born July 21, 1858, the sixth child in the order of birth of Alfred and Clementine (Grammar) Cool who had four sons and five daughters. It is thought his parents were natives of Indiana but they were early settlers of Iowa, where they both died, when the son Jacob was a small child, the mother when he was six years old and the father two years later. The boy lived in Iowa until the spring of 1883, received a common school education and going out in the world to earn his living at an-early age. In the early spring of the year just mentioned he saddled a horse, and leading two other horses, started to ride to Nebraska, reaching Custer County in June and taking a pre-emption and tree claim.In 1885 Mr. Cool secured a homestead on section six, township sixteen, range twenty-two, being one of the first settlers in the neighborhood. He and several other young men had made a trip into Nebraska with a team and wagon in 1879, but he had returned to Iowa during the winter. He was attracted to the state as a healthful place to live at the time he decided to make it his permanent home, with this object in view securing some land. He was one of the early bachelors of the County and lived alone several years before his marriage. He now resides on section thirty-two, township seventeen, range twenty-two, but retains ownership of his original homestead and preemption claim. He owns six hundred and forty-nine acres of choice land in the County and is one of the more successful farmers and stockmen of his locality, having improved and developed his land to a high state of productiveness.
