Thanks for the illustration, Sue. You definitely have a point! ;) I have a JACKSON connection, in a round-a-bout way, in Sharp County. I don't know Mr. JACKSON'S first name, but he married a 1st cousin of my father, Ester FOREMAN. Ester is still living, but her husband is deceased. Her line goes back to Albert FORMAN and Eva Pearl FERGUSON. Eva Pearl and my grandmother Sarah Ellen were sisters.
