   JACOB FELLER, farmer and stock raiser, P. O. Findlay, was born in Northampton
County, Penn., in 1806, and the following year his parents, Frederick and
Susanna (Rabinalt) Feller, moved to Fairfield County, Ohio, where our subject
was reared. In October, 1831, Jacob Feller came to this county, and has been
successfully connected with his present industry (farming and stock raising)
since. He was united in marriage, in August, 1830, with Mary, daughter of Peter
Powell, Esq., and to them have been born seven sons and five daughters: Eli,
deceased while young; Jonathan, a member of Company A, Twenty-first Regiment
Ohio Volunteer Infantry, died in the army; Susanna, deceased wife of Samuel
Biggs, Esq.; Samuel, residing in Dakota; Paul and Jacob, farmers of Findlay
Township; Mary, wife of G. D. Insley, of Wood County, Ohio; Enos, residing in
Wood County, Ohio; Elizabeth, wife of John D. Wagner, of Frankfort, Dak.;
Timothy, a merchant, of Findlay, Ohio; Ella, wife of Marion Cox, of Wood County,
Ohio, and Sarah Ann, wife of Adam Wagner, of Indiana. The subject of this
sketch, Jacob Feller, Sr., came to this county when it was nearly new, and,
settling in the woods, cleared land and made a home for himself. By steady and
persistent industry he accumulated property, until at one time he owned over 400
acres of land. He is a worthy citizen, and a good husband and father, and has
given each of his children a good start in the world. He is a member of the
Evangelical Church; in politics a Republican.
