Mother: Elizabeth [Brake] Shreve
Marriage ledger shows Elizabeth *Sheves [sic] married Henry Jackson on 24 April 1836 in Lewis County, Virginia. NOTE: Sheves = SHREVE.
She was his 2nd wife.
In 1840 their household consisted of 6 males; 3 (5), 1 (15-20), 1 (30-40), 1 (60-70), and 2 females; 1 (10-15) and 1 (20-30). They lived in Lewis County, Virginia. Note: The oldest male would be Henry and the oldest female would be Elizabeth. The 3 youngest males would be their sons; Decatur, Samuel and James. The youngest female is most likely Mary Sophia (b.1827), youngest child by Henry's first wife. The other two males in the household would strictly be a guess, but again most likely sons from Henry's previous marriage; Ulysses (b.1824) and John (b.1820).
