Sorry, I don't have any photos of anyone further back than my great-grandmother, Ethel Tustin.
As to Jacob and William's father, I have no other info than that which you've probably already found:that Sarah worked for a man (the name escapes me right now, but I have it someplace) whose wife was invalided.I tend to believe it as census records carried her as "Tustin" until her death and the children were raised in her father's house.Also, the community would be more accepting such a situation than two illegitimate births of unknown parentage.
I did find something interesting today on the web, a marriage record of an Abraham Tustin to a Hannah Waters in 1781.Since the original Jacob's name was Jacob Abraham and I've heard that he may have married someone nammed "Anna", I'm thinking that this might be the lost wife.I'll get back with you if I find out anything more about her.
