Evening Herald November 26, 1925 Ike Jackson, well known Indian of the Klamath Reservation, plans to leave early next Monday for Washington, D.C., where he will confer with government officials in an effort to get better recognition for Indian Tribes in Oregon and Washington. Although he is a member of the Pitt River Tribe, he lives on the Klamath Reservation, where he has land, and where he is influential in the councils of the redskins. Jackson has represented the Klamath Indians before in the nation's capital and knows the ways of the lobbyists. He is personally acquainted with many government officials and believes he will be able to get the needed recognition. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Evening Herald November 12, 1931 Isaac Jackson, familiarly known to hundreds of residents of the county as Ike Jackson, passed away at the family residence near Sprague River, Wednesday evening about 7:30, his demise terminating a brief illness.

They had with them the body of a 3 month old baby, belonging to Mr. and Mrs. Ike Jackson and were taking it home for burial. From what I can learn, the child had met it's death in a strange manner. The mother had left it laying on the seat of the spring wagon while getting out of the vehicle, when by some means it was thrown out, falling under the wheel, which passed over it and caused its death. It was a sad homeward journey. _________________________________________________________________ Express yourself with the new version of MSN Messenger!
