Bio History Note

German Bible printed in 1829 with the Jacob Hoover family register written between the Old and New Testaments. It appears as if Jacob had was briefly married to Elisabeth Ganse (29 January1826) and remarried to Susana Skidler on 28 October of that same year (1826).  It looks like a child, Sally Hoover, was born 25 December 1826.

Elisabeth Ganse Hoover died 25 January 1828 (24 years, 1 month, and 11 days).

Some members of the Hisey family are also recorded in this book.
