Jacob Black was born in North Carolina in April of 1854 (inconsistant with tombstone date). He is believed to be the son of John & Linda Bare Black.
Jacob married Mary E. Lewis circa 1876, presumably in North Carolina; and to this union was born eight known children, including - Leona Lee (Hodges), Mattie L. (Stapler), James A., Nancy Ellen (Clemens), and Sina L. In the 1900 US Federal Census, Mary is listed as having been the mother of eight children, six of whom were living in 1900.
By the birthplaces of his children, we can see that Jacob moved from North Carolina sometime between 1877, when his oldest child was born, and 1879, when the next child was born, as she lists her birth as having occured in Tennessee. James (1880) and Nancy (1885) both list their births as having occured in Tennessee; and the youngest child lists her birth (1894) as having occured in Alabama, which would mean that Jacob arrived in Alabama between 1885 and 1894.
The 1900 Federal Census also lists Jacob's occupation as a laborer at a saw mill, and reveals that he could read and write, and that he owned his farm, free of mortgage.
