Family Tree Maker - Galizien German Descendants

She lived on a farm near St. James, (MN), about 55 miles away. There was no courtship, but Jacob knew of her
and made contact by corresponding with her Parents.
Jacob purchased 160 more acres of land for $4,000. His total acreage then was 280 acres. In 1901 Jacob built a
large barn still in use at this writing. In 1905 the house was built with rocks brought in from the fields, then set in
concrete to form the basement walls.
Seven children were born to this second marriage. One daughter, Cecelia, their first born, died in infancy. A
niece, Florence, Sadie and Martin Rupp's daughter, came to live with Jacob's family when her mother became ill.
A few years after Sadie died, Florence was legally adopted by Jacob and Emelia.
In 1900, the Town of Westbrook was platted and the building of businesses and residences began. It was nine
miles away but grew: little faster than neighboring towns, as it was a progressive village, it became the prime
center for Jacob's business and shopping needs. In 1914 Jacob retired and his family moved to Westbrook, He
bought a large home on a 4 acre plot on the north edge of the village. A prime consideration for this move was to
give his children an opportunity for a high school education. In this new location, Jacob built out buildings,
planted an orchard, and raised bountiful gardens of flowers and vegetables. He also increased his herd of milk
cows and built a small business of bottling and delivering milk to local inhabitants.
For Jacob and Emelia, it was a rather ideal life and they enjoyed many happy years in their Westbrook home.
They were largely self sufficient as milk, cream, butter, cheese, eggs, chickens, ducks, geese, bees and much more
were right at hand. His Silver Spangled Hamburg chickens consistently took first prize at county fairs, and he sold
many of their eggs for $1.00 each! Their home was always busy with their children, grandchildren and other
relatives spending many happy hours with them.
Very unexpectedly, on 12 April 1938, Emelia died of a heart ailment. Jacob was taken ill with pneumonia after a
hard day's work splitting firewood, and died 18 September 1942, at the age of 79. He had written his own
obituary, and in his own words he "has transferred his citizenship and became a citizen of Heaven." Their final
resting place on Earth is the Westbrook cemetery located on the north east boundary of that village (now the City
of Westbrook, MN).
