Jacob's story is a bit uncertain. He married Camelia Painter in 1876 but in the federal census of 1880 he is listed as single and living with his parents.
Jacob's second wife Sarah remarried in 1906. In the 1910 census he is listed as divorced and in 1920 he is living with his sister Mattie who never married.
Given the ages of the children it appears he had three children by his first wife and two by his second wife.
Note: There's another Jacob Broyles of about the same age in the area, Jacob Newton Broyles of Greene Co.
