HISTORICAL NOTE:
The following quoted from History of Ohio; The American Historical Society, Inc., 1925; Volume IV, page 191. An exerpt from the record for Jacob F. Giering:

His [Jacob's] parents, Louis and Mary (Andler) Giering, were born and reared in Wurttemberg, Germany, where their marriage was solemnized and whence they came in 1864 to the United States and establishing their residence at New Castle, Pennsylvania, the father having there continued to follow his trade, that of cooper, until 1870, when he came with his family to Ohio and established himself in the cooperage business in Youngstown, which then gave slight semblance of the important industrial city which it is to-day. He developed a substantial business in the manufacturing of barrels, casks and similar products, and the enterprises grew to such scope as to require his employment of several workmen. He eventually expanded the enterprise to include the manufacturing and distributing of wine, and various aerated beverages now commonly designated as "soft drinks," besides adding to his business a general bottling works. He was long numbered among the sterling and successful business men of Youngstown, and was one of its venerable and honored citizens at the time of his death, in 1914. His widow, now (1924) eighty-eight years of age, still maintains her home in Youngstown. She is an earnest member of the German Reformed Church, as was also her husband
