I think I just found the father JOb as James. I hopes it's him because I can find another generation after him as well. Thanks for the advice. I should read the Bible shouldn't I? Karen |

It's a biblical name: Job "The Persecuted" Hebrew Perhaps if he was persecuted he would need "Job's comforter". |

My g grandfather's name was JOb, & his father was JOb. Was it a name you would be Christened with or a nickname or short for John etc? These Martin's are driving me crazy! thanks Karen |
