I'm trying to find the death date and place of burial for Jacob Estep.

Jacob Estep (James Edward, Samuel Emmet, Pleasant, Joel) was born in Anderson Co., KY, in 1877, most likely in Louisville. He is the son of James Edward Estep and his first wife who is yet unknown, but is possibly Margaret Turner.

He married, in Meigs Co.,OH, on 18 Oct 1894 to Adeline (Addie) Jane McBride, the daughter of Laurence McBride and Sarah Borham. She was born 10 Oct 1879, in Sutton, Meigs Coo., OH. She married 2nd John Armentrout before 1909; she died 3 Nov 1935 in Columbus, FranklinCo., OH.

Their children were:

George Estep, b. 3 July 1895 in Middleport, Meigs, OH, and died before 1900.
Carroll Estep, b. 20 Dec 1897, Meigs Co.,OH;married Beatrice L. (unknown) about 1920 in OH.; died 24 Nov 1972 in Evansville,Vanderburgh, IN and is buried in St. Joseph's cemetery.

Jacob is enumerated on the 1880 census as living in the household of Adam Roush. Also in the household is Adam's wife, Nancy (Baldwin) Estep Roush and her children, Charles and Sarah, and Adam's son George.

Jacob enlisted as a Private in Company L of the Seventh Regiment Ohio Volunteer Infantry in Middleport OH, 25 April 1898. He was muster- in 13 May 1898. Jacob was listed in a muster roll at Middleport, Meigs, OH, on 25 Apr 1898. He was muster-out 6 Nov 1898 in Columbus, Ohio.

Jacob is no enumberated on the 1900 census with his wife and child, but she is not listed as a widow either. His wife, Addie (McBride) Estep, marries for a second time before 1910 to John Armentrout. Family story has it that Jacob died in a fire in possibly a movie theater.

If anyone has any link to this line, please contact me, Linda Reed, at SaintLinda@aol.com
