comments

The 1904 Inscriptions from the Old Village Cemetery state, "Dach, John Frederick, b.Oct. 15, 1809, d. Feb 24, 1871." The Cuyahoga County Cemetery Inscriptions state, "John Frederick Dach Illegible." Wife bought his lot and is probably buried next to him Cuyahoga County Cemetery Inscriptions has him as "John Frederick Sack" and his wife as "Lucille Sack" City "list" for 1871 says "Feb. 24 Frederick Jack -- tumor on left jam [sic] 62" Obituary, Grindstone Advertiser, 10 March 1871: "Another of our acquaintances has been removed from our midst by the hand of death. Mr. Fredrick Jack, who resided one and one half miles North east of this place, died on Friday Morning, the 24th and was buried on Sunday afternoon in Berea Cemetery, after the funeral discourse in the Chapel room of German Wallace College. The number in attendance, although the weather was disagreeable and the roads difficult to pass, showed the respect in which the deceased was held by his large circle of acquaintance. Mr. J. leaves no children. They having died twenty three years ago. His widow, with whom he came to this country in 1852 and settled in this vicinity survives. His age was 62 years. A tumor on the face occasioned his death. He professed faith in Christ as the Redeemer of men." No Jacks, Dachs, Jachs, or Sachs of appropriate age in 1860 or 1870 census. Carver's mark at right hand bottom corner of stone, appears to be "Damer" with an illegible date.
