Wytheville, Va., June 29 - Mr. Jacob Trinkle, one of the oldest citizens of Pulaski County, passed away at Dublin this morning at eight-thirty o 'clock at the age of 89 after a brief illness of one week. By his death Pulaski County has lost one of their best citizens, if not the oldest . Mr. Trinkle's father, Mr. Stephen Trinkle, was one of the pioneer settlers of this county, having owned extensive lands throughout Pulaski County and the land on which Dublin now stands.
Mr. Jacob Trinkle was one of a family of ten, four boys and six girls, of which he was the last surviving son and three sisters survive him - Mrs. Jacob Anderson, Dublin, Va., Mrs. Robert Stephens, Christiansburg, Va., and Mrs. J. H. Hage [Hoge], Bland, Va., - besides two sons and two daughters - Mr. J. S. Trinkle, Dublin, Va., Mr. W. C. Trinkle, Bland, Va ., and Mrs. S. C. Foot [sic] and Mrs. R. P. Johnson, Wytheville, Va. He was raised on the farm near Dublin, but the last thirty years of his life has been spent on his farms in Bland County. The funeral service wi ll be held in Dublin Wednesday and the interment will take place at the old Trinkle burial grounds near here on the farm where he spent his early life as a boy.
"...Jacob and Eliza [Jane Kirkner] were married in Pulaski County on April 29, 1845 by William P. Bishop. [Jacob was a farmer, but] during the Civil War ... helped mine salt-peter [sic] in the cave on Trinkle land for use in making gun powder. After Eliza's death in 1873, Jacob in 1877 purchased the Morgan farm in Bland County on April 9, 1877. He married Lou Noble and moved to the farm in Bland County. In 1906 due to poor health he sold the Bland farm and moved back to Dublin. He died there on June 29, 1909. Jacob and Eliza are burried [sic] in the Dublin cemetary."
