    (Jacob Henry Hanshaw)^a,b,c,d,e    (Henry Handshaw)^f,g

Born Aug 25 1866, Wallback, Clay County, West Virginia.^{a,b,c,h,f,d,i,e,j,g}

He married Mary Florence Rogers, Apr 8 1888, Clay County, West Virginia.^a,k,l,m,b,e    (Florence Rogers)^k,g    (Babe Rogers)^e,n    Mary, daughter of Alfred Morgan Rogers & Mary Florence Davis, was born Feb 26 1871, Valley Fork, Clay County, West Virginia.^{b,e,c,h,f,j,g}    (c1874).^d    [Florence's parents Alfred Morgan Rogers born 1848, died 1927; Mary Florence Davis Rogers born 1847, died 1871].^o

Jacob and family were shown in the 1900 census (Jun 22 1900), Clay County, West Virginia:^c

Jacob and family were shown in the 1920 census (Feb 14 1920), Clay County, West Virginia:^f

Mary died Aug 25 1927, Clay County, West Virginia; buried Hively Cemetery, off Rt. 36 two miles south of Wallback, Clay County, West Virginia.^b,j    Note that this death date conflicts with the 1930 census above - it seems possible that a gravestone or handwritten record transcription error has occured - her death might have been 1937, not 1927.    However family members remember her death at about 1927,ⁿ although no death record for her has been found in West Virginia's death records.^t    Her appearance in the 1930 census above is puzzling.

In 1936 Jacob was living in Valley Fork, Clay County, West Virginia.^u

In 1944 Jacob was still living in Valley Fork, Clay County, West Virginia.ⁱ

Jacob Henry Hanshaw died Mar 28 1958, Clay County, West Virginia; buried Hively Cemetery, off Rt. 36 two miles south of Wallback, Clay County, West Virginia.^a,b,e    (Mar 25 1958).^j
