Jacob RUSLING
(1845-1846) |
Jacob RUSLING 1
User ID: P00050994. General Notes: JACOB RUSLING, the eighth son of James Rusling (his third by Hannah Rose), was born November 17, 1815, and died August -, 1826. He was buried at Washington, New Jersey, in the Methodist Episcopal graveyard there, near the old Methodist church, by the side of his father. But in 1892 the ground there was needed for a new parsonage, and brother Henry and I removed his remains and gravestone, with grandfather's and grandmother's (Hannah Rose), to Asbury, New Jersey, and they are all buried there now in the old Methodist Episcopal graveyard, in the "Rusling Plot." The trustees of the Asbury church authorized father to enclose this in his lifetime, and since his decease they have given Henry and me permission to enclose more ground, and now we have a large Family Plot there. However, since then, I have bought a plot in Riverview Cemetery, Trenton, New Jersey,1 and erected a Family Tomb there, and expect to rest there when "life's fitful fever is over." My family prefer this, as they are likely to continue here. |
