1887 (Jessamine Co., KY) "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

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." (Kentucky: A History
