Charles C. Jackson, the second son of Thomas and Elizabeth Jackson, was born in Schuyler county, Missouri, October 21, 1864; died in Bates county, March 27, 1932, at the age of 67 years, 5 months and 6 days. After the family moved to St. Clair county and Charley reached young manhood he married the girl of his choice, Rosella A. Stark, a daughter of J. C. Stark. The ceremony was performed at the bride's old home on Hogles Creek, May 1, 1892 by Elder John A. Souther. The young couple were nomadic and roved around for some time, living at two different times in Washington, for a time in Arkansas, also in Cedar county, Missouri, but finally they settled permanently in Bates county as the children were marrying and establishing homes near them. And those children are eight in number, six of whom are married, four boys and four girls, all present at the father's funeral. Charley Jackson will be missed in his home and in his community. He was a good husband and father, a true friend, a loyal citizen. Although not a member of any sect he was a Primitive Baptist by faith and loved the gospel preached at the old Bethel church. He had an attack of flu recently but had apparently gotten over that, but although poorly he had worked the day before taking his bed. Four days later the end came. The immediate family survivors are his wife and their children; Mrs. Laura Raborn, Mrs. Maudie Maine, Mrs. Josephine Hockett, Ernest, Bernie, Carl, Wesley and Eula Jackson. The latter two are still at home, the youngest of the eight being 17 years old. Eighteen grandchildren survive, also three brothers and one sister: Geo. T. of Adrian, Mo., Henry of Oregon City, Ore., and Mrs. Rosella Jackson Harper of Harper, Mo. All were present at the funeral except Henry. Elder T. E. Atteberry held the funeral service at the Bethel church in the presence of an unusually large crowd. The pallbearers were nephews: Homer and Wilmer Harper, Virgil, Martin, John and Everett Jackson. Burial was made at the Adam Howe cemetery near Virginia, Mo. Old St. Clair friends and neighbors of former years extend sympathy to the sorrowing family.
