Katrina, nice job of adding a little bit of color without taking away the old feel of the picture.
He looks like he could have been a bank robber with the scarf around his neck. I love his pocket watch, and he sure did have a head full of hair.
He has an awesome vest and I love his hat. I read the profile on Jacob and he lived an interesting life. He married his first cousin and had a son. After she died, he married another woman, but she just up and left. They never spoke again.
Jacob looks a little older than 14 in this picture and I found this picture on another site where it said that he was 16, but you can never tell.
Also read where he said that he was a farmer and his draft records said that he was lying, but his census records said that was how he made a living.
Very interest, and it made my night by reading about Jacob.
Thank you so much for sharing this picture of Jacob with your WikiTree family.
Happy New Year and God Bless.
