One of the prime reasons Jacob's parents and his entire family came to America was to prevent Jacob, Jr from having to serve on the front lines of the Russian army during WWI, and at the time the revolution was beginning. He brought his bride, Eva, with him and shortly after settling in Scottsbluff, NE, Jacob was killed by lightening.
