  Father	Isaac Potter,   b. 21 Apr 1793, Maryland ,   d. 2 Feb 1884, Kewanee, Henry County, Illinois  (Age 90 years)
  Mother	Catherine Hixenbaugh,   b. ABT. 1798, Maryland ,   d. 1865, Kewanee, Henry County, Illinois  (Age 67 years)
  Notes	In the 1850 Ohio census image that I found, the order of the names makes me believe that Elizabeth (b. abt. 1827) is probably not a daughter, but Jacob's wife. I also do not know who Catharine Caseleen is, but she is likely not a child of these parents.
