"Signed and acknowledged in the presence of Luke Jaco, James Terry (his mark)" (NOTE: James H. Terry was Luke Jaco's brother-in-law, married to his sister Elizabeth Jaco.) (NOTE: A separate document now filed with this marriage bond was the written consent of Joseph Prunty for Luke Jaco to marry his daughter, signed by Joseph Prunty and witnessed by James Terry and James Fleming. Relationship of James Fleming to the other parties is not known. The full text is as follows: "Harrison County and State of Virginia to Mr. John Willson, Clerk (next word illegible). Luke Jaco have license to marry my Daughter and in so doing you will oblige me.

(13) Headstone (year only) Event Notes Note (1) William Jaco is presumed to have died before August 1820 because of his absence from that census, wherein his wife was listed as head of household. Note (2) In household of daughter Elizabeth (Jaco) Terry. Note (3) The tax assessment list for the period Sep - Dec 1862 in Doddridge County included an entry for Luke Jaco, residence at Arnolds Creek, assessed a tax of one dollar on a horse carriage valued at $100. Tax records also indicate that Luke Jaco was residing in Missouri in the years 1866 and 1867, but that he appeared to have returned to Doddridge after that. The last Doddridge County tax record in his name was for the year 1872, although it is not clear that he was a resident at that time, or even still living. Note (4) Note (5) On the side of James H. Terry's tall obelisk grave marker is the inscription "Elizabeth, Wife of Jas. H. Terry, Died ." Because no date in given and no record has been found of her death, it is unclear whether Elizabeth Jaco Terry is actually buried with her husband in the Terry Cemetery. Note (6) In household of son James.
