Hello Janet, I am not really sure where she got her info, it is notes I made in Feb of 2002. When our new found Parker cousin e mailed me with the JR and Parker information I told her due to health issues I am not actively doing any research but I would look over what I had. When I pulled out the 1850 census on David's daughter I had never really noticed the Georgia listing. When I went to the Reuben notes I found this one where she had a birth date for Reuben. When I found your web site you told me there was no proof and I have never really pursued it. I am sure the Jackson researchers may like to contact her. Thanks for the heads up. I did find her addy if any one would like to reach out to her, Rhonda G.
