• Notes

  From Ezra Eby Book Tobias Kolb, "was born August 11th, 1810. On November 21st, 1833, he was married to Magdalena Bechtel who was born April 2nd, 1815, and died September 11th, 1866. Soon after their marriage they moved on the old 'Kolb Farm' on the west side of the Grand River, opposite Breslau, Ontario. During the last years of his life he was totally blind, thus causing more or less anxiety to his children who took care of him. Even in his unfortunate state (blindness) he was happy and contented and was waiting for the Lord's appointed time to remove him from this world unto the Kingdom of Glory. He died April 11th, 1894. His family consisted of eight children.
