Query: Jacob Egelston, Dearborn County

                Seeking info on family lines descending from great-grand-uncle Jacob Warner Egelston  of Dearborn County and other counties. He was a mason, carpenter, farmer, and state representative in 1838. Had two marriages.
                He was born in Steuben Co., NY, 1802. His father Samuel Egelston and mother Hannah Tripp moved family to Campbell Co. KY in 1815. She remarried a Clement. Jacob moved to IN in 1824.
                My great grandfather Charles Martin Egelston, born 1807, moved to Joliet Twp., Will Co., IL, by 1841 with wife Maxamilian Mary Race and children, then to Marshall Co, KS in 1857. Willing to share info.
