Possibility that Jacob and Henry are brothers -
There is an Iowa marriage record for Jacob Krekel b. 1826 Dausenau, Nassau says parents are Heinrich Krekel and Johanne Linkenbach
Many of these people are buried at Pleasant Hill Cem. Mt. Pleasant, Henry Co. IA - findagrave
It appears that Henry Krekel moved to Henry County by 1860.
Your Henry Zeller was born in Henry County according to his marriage record and the 1885 IA Census.Likely born at his grandfather's home.
