    • His surname is misspelled as "Stinebaugh" in the 1850 Coumbiana County, Ohio Census.

      In the 1860 Ohio Census he does not reside at home with his mother and step-father nor is there any record of him in the Ohio Census.

      He is buried next to his first wife, Martha, and their daughters, Pearl, Esther, and Mabel whose markers read "Daughter". His marker is inscribed "Father".

      According to his death certificate, Jacob resided at 835 East Summit Street in Alliance, Ohio at the time of his death. He was retired from the Pennsylvania Railroad and died from chronic hepatitis.

      Jacob's obituary from the Wednesday, 18 July 1928 Alliance Review is as follows:

      "Jacob A. Stambaugh, 86, Civil war veteran, passed away at his home 335 East Summit street at midnight Tuesday night. Mr. Stambuagh has been prominent for years in Grand Army circles. He was sargeant in charge of Kline cottage at the Solider's home in Sandusky for seven years returning to Alliance four years ago.

      Deceased was born at Randolph May 3, 1842. He enlisted for service in the Civil war at Alliance, April 13, 1861. At the expiration of the three months of the original enlistment he re-enlisted in Company I, 19th Ohio Volunteer Infantry, and served with disntinction for three years. He was taken prisoner by the Confederates at the battle of New Hope Church, Ga. and was taken to Andersonville prison where he was held for 270 days.

      'During that time I saw 10,403 of my unfortunate comrades die,' he wrote in a descripton of his years of service.

      For many years he was employed by the Pennsylvania railroad, serving as brakeman and conductor and for a number of years as freight and ticket agent at Bayard.

      He was a member of the United Presbyterian church and of John G. Fremont post, Grand Army of the Republic.

      He was twice married, his first wife passing away in 1921. In 1923 he was united in marriage to Mrs. Alice Lewis, who survives him. Once son Jacob V. Stambaugh of Argo, Ill., a half-brother Daniel Clark of Detroit, two half sisters, Miss Margaret Clark and Mrs. Marjory Correy of Fremont, Ind., four grandchildren and eight great grandchildren also survive.

      Funeral services will be held Friday afternoon at 2 o'clock at the home 335 East Summit street in charge of Rev. Ira F. Leeper and the John C. Gremont Post, G.A.R. Interment will be at the Alliance cemetery. Friends may call Thursday afternoon and evening."
