Jacob was born in Loughborough Twp., Frontenac County, Ontario, Canada. The following is from Geni:
In March 1846, his petition to purchase the W½ L32 (Clergy Reserve) C6 Pittsburgh Twp, Frontenac Co, CW was recommended by the Executive Committee. He stated that he was in possession of the property at the time. Caleb Fairbanks was living on the east half. Caleb's wife Nancy Albertson was his first cousin. In 1848 they were still living there.
In the early minutes of the Waterloo (Cataraqui) Circuit, Methodist Church, he played a prominent role, often being designated as "Local Preacher".
In Nov 1852 he purchased 200 ac L25, C11, S Norwich Twp, Oxford Co, CW. He must also have bought 200 ac L25, C12, because he sold it in March 1855 to Edward Potter a Brantford lumberman. Jacob's neighbours just across the road were his sisters who had married the Lyon brothers.
Jacob took out a series of mortgages on his C11 property with his father Ira and his brother Charles W. and also with William Lattimore who was his wife's uncle. He was unable to pay off these mortgages and in May of 1865 he received a judgment which debarred him from this property, which went then to William Lattimore.
Jacob's daughter Julia Emily had died in May of 1867, and so in 1867 or 1868 they moved to Lapeer Co, Michigan and lived for a time with their daughter Harriet E. and husband James Johnson.
In the 1870 Census for Rich Township, Lapeer Co. pg 2, their remaining family at home are Ellen, Martha, Jacob E, and Drusilla.
In the 1880 Census they are living in the same township, and the children at home are Elmer J. and Sarah D.
The publication "Pioneer Families and History of Lapeer County" pg 221 shows them living in Section 17 as neighbours of their daughters Mary J. and Harriet E. During this period several of their family had moved west to South Dakota.
Jacob was in Conde, Spink Co. when he died. Delia Darling Honey in her work on "The Darling Family" referred to him as Rev. Jacob Darling, Vol. I, pg 28. *
