1887, Jessamine Co.

JEREMIAH COMBS was born June 24, 1821, and is the third son of Edward
and Sophia (Hicks) Combs, who were natives of Fayette County, Ky.  His 
father died in 1825, but had moved to Jessamine County previous to his 
death.  Jeremiah grew to manhood on the farm, receiving a limited 
schooling.  His parents were very poor, and when he married, in January 
1842, he moved his household truck on a "slide".  His wife's maiden name
was Martha Zike, born in Jessamine County, a daughter of Joseph Zike.  
Eight children blessed this union: William E., Belle, Hester, Emma, John
B., Frances M., Granville and Sallie.  His wife died in 1874, and he 
married for his second wife Mrs. Affia D. (Sneed) Munday, daughter of 
Capt. Thos. Sneed and widow of James H. Munday, of Mercer County, Ky., 
where she was born.  By her first husband she had three children, two 
living: George P. and Thomas H.  On the 24th of May, 1886, the third 
child, Jesse C., was drowned near Ford, Ky., in attempting to save a boy
from drowning, and both lives were lost in the attempt.  He was an 
upright young man, and his untimely death was sincerely mourned by all 
who were associated with him.  Mr. Combs owns 310 acres of land in Lee 
Precinct.  The family are members of the Methodist Episcopal Church 
South.
