Comments: Louis Kenneth Jacobson (Nee: ) | CA United States | 1851-1900 | Comments: I have an old photograph identified as Clara STEFFAN JACOBS which was taken at the Vaughan's Studio in San Francisco, CA. The photograph is of a man and woman with the man unidentified. The photograph was recovered with other photographs from Frankfort, IL and I believe that this is a photograph of CLARA STEFFAN and her husband Louis JACOBSON. The photograph appears to have been taken in the 1880's with the couple appearing to be in their 20's or 30's at the time. Based on limited research and thanks to a family genealogist I was able to gather the following information:
Clara STEFFAN or STEFFEN was b. 9 Oct 1862 in Will County, IL to parents Henry STEFFEN (1831-1906) and Augusta SCHEIBNER (1840-1917). Clara was one of 7 children born to this couple including Clara; Eveline; Emma; Ida; Bertha Beatrice; Paulina Marie; and Laura STEFFEN, all born between 1862 and 1878. Clara married Louis Kenneth JACOBSON (1852-1912) on 8 Oct 1885 in Will County, IL and they had two children including Calhoun Hargrave JACOBSON (1892-1965) and Pauline JACOBSON CRELL (b. 1898). Clara died on 1 Apr 1959 in Orange County, CA and is buried in the Evergreen Cemetery in Los Angeles, CA
Louis Kenneth JACOBSON died 23 Jul 1912 and is buried in the Evergreen Cemetery in Los Angeles, CA.
Their son Calhoun married Gladys L. MAUGHLIN, and they had a son, Calhoun “Cal” E. JACOBSON who died in 1991. Cal was married to Rovena H. FURNIVALL (1918-1996) and they had two children Denise Rovena JACOBSON (b. 1942) who was married to Jeremy Byerly FERRIS (later divorced) and they had two children, Blake FERRIS (now deceased) and Calhoun FERRIS who with his wife Heidi was last living in Oregon. Cal’s other child Eric Calhoun JACOBSON (b. 1945) married Cherly K. MUELLER, and they had a daughter Kristin JACOBSON.
I am hoping to locate someone from this family so that the photograph can be returned to its rightful place, with family. If you are a member of this family or know someone who might be, please contact me.
Thanks,
Shelley
