  Father	Henry Jacobs,   b. Abt 1833, St James Westminster district, London, England d. 31 Mar 1911, Frien Barnet, London, England (Age 78 years)
  Mother	Ellen Silverstone,   b. Abt 1835, Paddington, London, England d. 6 Nov 1913, Fulham, London, England (Age 78 years)
  Notes	From Gerry Newnham (email 16-Jul-2010) He also doesn't appear on the 1851 database as he was in Ohio/Kentucky at the time, where he married Ellen Silverstone. However no documentation of the marriage has been found - yet! In any case the Cincinnati records were destroyed in a fire around 1870 and although the records have been reconstructed Henry was back in England by then so probably wasn't aware that the authorities were asking people to re-register.
