-Jacob Kline, third child and third son of John and Anna Kline, was born while they still lived in the German community of Lower Macungie Township , Lehigh County PA.  They attended the Zion's Lutheran Church and Jacob was baptized there, as were his two older brothers [[Henry Kline|Henry]] and [[Reuben Kline|Reuben]], and his sister [[Maria Kline|Maria]].  In 1837 the family, along with two of Jacob's uncles ([[Philip Klein]] and [[Johan Jacob Kline]]) migrated westward to Venango County PA.  Initially they settled in Beaver Township, at Wentlings Corners, and the next four children were baptized at St. Paul's Lutheran church there, a union church with the Reformed congregation.  After 10 years in the Wentlings Corners area (1837-1847), the family moved to Elk Township Clarion until 1850, and by 1860 the father had amassed sufficient savings from his farming to buy a farm in Ashland Township, near the Ashland Church.<br> Jacob was 25 years old in 1855 and married the 19 year old Christine "Tenna" Shreffler.  Their first child was born that year, and over the next 23 or so years they had a total of 14 children, although 7 of them had died by 1900.  <br>Jacob and Tenna settled initially in the border area of Richland and Cranberry Townships, Venango County, and Jacob worked as a shoemaker.  By 1880 they had moved to Ashland Township, Clarion Co., and the 1900 census indicates that they lived in a rented house. Jacob died in 1905 at age 75, after a 3 year bout of paralysis. Jacob and Tenna are buried in the Valley Cemetery, Richland Township, Venango Co. PA.

The area of Rockland Twp., Venango Co. PA where he lived, lies today just south of Rt. 322 and just west of the Clarion County line. The area is known as Peg-N-Awl, after the shoemaker. A small cemetery known as the Weaver or Pen'N Awl Cemetery (Free Methodist), lies just south of Rt. 322 on Rt. T-592.  Of the ten or so gravestones legible today, four are of Shrefflers born between 1851-1894.  These may be related to the family of Jacob's wife, Christina "Tenna" Shreffler.
