Shortly after his birth his family moved to Clark County, Iowa, where Mr. Jackson was raised to Manhood. In the year of 1900 he was united in marriage to Halcyon Willey at Osceola, Iowa, on July 6.

Mr. Jackson was in every way a good citizen. He was faithful and true to his friends and possessed those traits which enabled him to win and hold the friendship of all those with whom he was associated. He was ever ready and willing to offer a hand in case of sickness and trouble of his neighbors and friends. He will be missed from the home and his friends and the community at large. He is survived by his widow, 5 children, 5 grandchildren, three brothers, Frank and Raymond, of California; and Grover, of Hugo, Okla.; two sisters, Mrs. Maud Stickler of Reedsburg, Wis.; and Mrs. Ruby Harris, of Traer, Iowa.
