Hello again. I just got back from Morgan Co. where I FINALLY got some information about my missing JACKSON family. One of the things I found was that they married into the FANNINGs, specifically, George W. JACKSON married Mary Jane FANNING Nov. 14, 1878. Mary Jane was 16 and had to get her mother's permission to marry him. SHe was b. in 1862 and died 1919 after having 5 children: Laura who married Louis SOOY, Clarence S. JACKSON, John William "Bill" JACKSON, and Arthur Clyde JACKSON. Most of them were buried at Youngblood or Murrayville Cemeteries. . The other one was Charles A. JACKSON,( who may have been called "Dick"), married Barbara A. ? (suspect FANNING ) no doubt around the 1880's and had at least 3 children: Roy, Zelpha who married a SITTON and another child name unknown. Does any of this sound familiar to you to anyone? I also got some obits, probates and marriage licenses and am beginning to flesh out the JACKSON lineage a bit more. Located naturalization papers for William Proctor JACKSON as well as some census records from Macoupin Co. where he and Martha Ann BROWN moved in time for the 1860 census. William was very good at procreation,as well as at borrowing money because when he died sometime after the 1870 Census for Macoupin Co he owed so much money to so many people that his widow had to sell the farm at auction in order to pay his bills! I can't figure out what happened to Martha, there is no sign of stray children to make me think she remarried, but yet there is no record of a death record for her or for WIlliam in eitherMorgan or Macoupin County though their graves are at Youngblood with several of their children (William N (probably Newton), Thomas M., and John H. (with wife Sarah A. )are buried there as well.m I have sent 2 JACKSON obits to Mary Ann for posting. So now that I have mentioned the FANNING , SOOY, MUTCH and MANSFIELD connections to my JACKSON and DUGGER branches,I am hoping that my cousins are now all going to leap forth out of the old family tree. Pleeeeeeeeze??!!! Carol DUGGER Napa, CA
