- Jacob Clemens, "the third son of Abraham and Mary (Steiner) Clemens, was born in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, February 9th, 1788. He was married to Susannah Dierstein. On February 3rd, 1810, his brothers and sisters conveyed by release to him the dwellings together with seventy-six acres of land, being part of the old homestead. Here he resided until April 7th, 1825, when he and his wife sold the farm to Henry Ziegler for $2933. After selling his farm he and his family, together with others, moved to Canada and settled in Waterloo County, opposite Breslau, on the farm now owned by Joseph Cressman, where he resided until his death which occurred April 8th, 1876. His wife was born November 11, 1789, and died September 24th 1861. To them were born Three children, all born in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania."
