Individual Details

Married Elizabeth Ann "Lizzie Ann" Johnson in Jackson Co KY.

1880 Census. Horse Lick Precinct, Jackson Co KY, Hh 93
Jacob Lakes, age 30. Elizabeth, wife, age 24.
Thomas 6, son. Edward, 5, son. James, 3, son.

There was another Jacob Lakes in Horse Lick Precinct, Hh 87 - his household amazingly similar, great possibilities for confusion between men of the same age. Or perhaps the same man counted twice.
He was age 32. His wife Eliza was 23.
Sons were Jerry, age 7. Edward, age 6, and James age 2.

There was great difficulty in finding anything that resembled this family in 1900. I do believe I found two of the sons - on the same page with their uncle John "Jack" Lakes.
