It's frustrating to hit road blocks; so many common names back then too.

Look how similar this is:

My 4th great grandfather was Jacob A. Creek b. 1810 in Hampshire Co.Virgina (now WV). He married a Lydia Lane while living in Ohio (Perry/Fairfield counties). He had a total of 9 children and moved to Iowa where he was a blacksmith/farmer and Lutheran. He then, around 1870 moves to TN (dont know why) and dies in 1873.

I have some data that may prove he was the son of John Creek, who was the son of Rebecca Wicks-Creek.

Good luck!
