Two Sister Jacob's in the TKM

Sister Karissa Jacob sent her first email from Tennessee and there was on picture that was funny it was her and another Sister. My husband said why would she be wearing Karissa's name tag. Well a few days later I got a message on FB with that message from the other Sister Jacob's mom. So we started talking and she shared the story of her last name. What a sweet family!!

This is what her mom sent me.

Originally from Shiprock NM the Navajo reservation. I converted in 2005 and my kids were smaller then, but we're continuing to grow in the church. Funny thing is we have a totally different last name but because the missionaries in the area couldn't pronounce it, they gave my grandfather the last name of Jacob. This had to be in the 1950s or so.
