Wife of John Jefferson Jackson
THE FREMONT COUNTY HERALD
April 30, 1925
"Mrs. J. J. Jackson"--At her home in east Sidney, on April 23, 1925, Mrs. J. J. Jackson passed to her eternal reward after more than a week of hard fighting against the dread disease of double pneumonia. The wife and mother will be sadly missed in this home and the sincere sympathy of the entire community is extended to the bereaved family in their dark hour of sorrow.
Mrs. Jackson was the only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. David Butcher and was born on June 7, 1873, near Norwood in Wright county, Missouri, and, at the time of her passing, had reached the age of 51 years, 10 months and 16 days. At the age of twenty-six years she united with the Baptist church in which her father was a minister.
On January 20, 1890, she was united in marriage with J. J. Jackson and to this union were born seven children, one of whom died in infancy. Those who remain are Susie, Mrs. Sidney Carter, Golde, Ada, Grace and Edwin, together with Mrs. Charles McAllister, a daughter by a former marriage, and Sherman Jackson, a step-son, all of whom live in Sidney.
About eight years ago this family moved from Missouri to Sidney and they have since made this place their home.
Mrs. Jackson was a woman who helped to bear the sorrows and ills of others--a modest and unassuming type--such as is the salt of the earth. Her ready ministrations will be missed by all who knew and loved her.
Funeral services were held from the home in east Sidney Friday afternoon, April 24, at 3 o'clock, conducted by Rev. Dahlgren of Hamburg.
