Individual Details
Jacob Holm
(9 Oct 1822 - 9 Apr 1908)
There was an old man down in the Pike used to tell me stories that were handed down. My Grandpa Jacob retired from the farm & we lived on it 9 years. He built a home on 100 acres near Canton 6 miles from the farm. He was a solem[sic] sober serious man & a perfectionist. He used to drive horse & wagon to the farm nearly every day and go around the farm with a sythe[sic] & mow all the weeds along the fences. He worked his ten acres & had everything just so. He worked until he couldn't hardly walk anymore. He was well fixed financially & didn't have to but believed no one should waste any of their time if they could find something constructive to do.
