James JACKSON b. 1799 in Ireland came to Lauderdale County in AL near 1820. He married Sarah "Sally" Moore McCulloch and they had 10 children. They built the "Forks of Cypress" plantation and he was instrumental in the building of Florence, AL. My ancestor is their youngest son George Moore Jackson who built "Moorefields" in Colbert County, AL. Many of my Jackson relatives are buried at the Jackson cemetery at the "Forks." George Moore Jackson married Sarah Cabell Perkins who was raised in Lauderdale County, her father was William O'Neal Perkins, who I am lacking information on. Sarah Cabell Perkins is a descendant of Pocahontas. Her parents died when she was young so she was taken in, with her sister, by the Jackson's at the "Forks." George Jackson and his wife Sarah Cabell Perkins had several children. Alexander Jackson (b. 1854) Elizabeth Jackson (1856-1861) Jane Jackson (1858-1947) she is my great grandmother. Rufus Polk Jackson (1861-) Kate Breckinridge Jackson (1863-1960) never married, but held me as a baby Richard Harrison Jackson (1866-1971) one of Lauderdales most famous sons. He went to naval academy and became a hero, was a 4 star admiral in the navy and lived to be 105. He died in Coronado, Calif. And I did meet him a few months before he died.

Some of the items have been there for a little bit, but there are additions: Springer to Springer deed from Peggy Joice Horton Wallace Cemetery, located in east Lauderdale from Cleo Morrison THANKS! Peggy and Cleo. I've also put the 1907 Confederate Veterans Census up. Also, Troy McCarley's web site address has been changed, it's on the family web site page.

I have looked at the Archibald McDonald family, wondering if they are related to my line of McDonalds who arrived in Lauderdale about the same time.
